A male and female are facing charges after fraudulently reporting a vehicle stolen in Pickering.
On Tuesday, August 20, 2024, members of West Division responded to a stolen vehicle call in the area of Fairport Road and Strouds Lane. A male and female reported their vehicle stolen after it had been parked overnight in the male�s driveway. The female was compensated by her insurance company after the vehicle could not be located.

On January 17, 2025, the male and female surrendered themselves to a DRPS Division where they were taken into custody without incident.
