Two people have been charged for stealing a truck from a dealership in Happy Valley-Goose Bay.
Around noon on Sunday, police were called to a car dealership where two people had broken into the building and stolen multiple items before driving away in a Ford F-150 on the lot.
Police tracked down the stolen vehicle later that day and tried to pull it over, however it sped away and was later found abandoned in a snow bank. Officers tracked the pair to a nearby home, where they were arrested.
Forty-one-year-old Anton Russell and 35-year-old Natasha Pottle now face numerous charges including break-and-enter and theft of a motor vehicle.
