(MUNICIPALITY OF NORTH PERTH, ON) On Monday August 12, 2013, around 9:20 p.m., Perth County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officers were called to Wallace Ave. North, in front of the Chevrolet Buick GMC car dealership. The driver of a car carrier truck called police when he observed 4 males enter his truck while he was unloading cars. The males ran from the scene prior to police arrival after they were confronted by the truck driver.

Further investigation revealed that one of the males was on a court ordered recognizance which required him to abide by numerous conditions. This male was found to be in contravention of three of these conditions and marihuana was located on his person.
