Chippewa County, Michigan. A 24-year-old man from Brampton, Ontario has been arraigned
on charges after he was arrested for possession of a stolen commercial vehicle.
On December 12, 2025, at approximately 7:35 p.m., a Motor Carrier Officer (MCO) from the
Sault Ste. Marie Post was on patrol near the Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge when he
observed a semi-truck towing a trailer which had commercial vehicle violations. A stop was
initiated and further investigation revealed that the semi-truck had been previously reported
stolen out of Ontario, Canada. The MCO confirmed this truck was stolen and also found that the
vehicle’s VIN number had been altered in an apparent attempt to conceal its identity. The semi-
truck and trailer were seized and towed from the scene.
