Arrests Made After Truck Theft In Brussels

Two Huron County males have been arrested following the theft of a pick-up truck in Brussels this week.

On July 25th at 11:39am, officers observed a Chevrolet Silverado pick-up truck with three males around it on Ainley Street in Brussels. The pick-up was then driven out of Brussels, with officers suspecting it had been stolen. The owner, who lives in Formosa, was contacted and confirmed it had been stolen.

Officers began patrolling and the vehicle was spotted again on Ainley Street at 12:30pm, and officers approached one of the males at the truck and arrested him without incident. A second suspect was later arrested at a nearby residence. A small amount of methamphetamine was recovered in the vehicle.

Quinn Campbell, 20 years of age from North Huron & Michael Benninger, 29 years of age, also from North Huron, have each been charged with Possession of Property Obtained by Crime Over $5,000, Mischief Under $5,000, Possession of Methamphetamine, Fail to Comply with Recognizance and two counts of Fail to Comply with Probation. They both remain in custody with court appearances scheduled for this week. A third suspect remains at large. He is described as a white male in his 20's or 30's with longer hair.

Anyone who knows of this man's whereabouts are to contact Huron County OPP or Crime Stoppers.
