A number of charges face a Thunder Bay man following the recovery of a stolen truck by police.
They tell us they were patrolling the McLaughlin Street area in the south end around 9 o’clock Saturday morning, when they noticed the black pickup parked on the street.
Police learned the suspect was inside, believed to have a gun.
