The driver is seen smoking a cigarette.

Police said the suspect is responsible for some significant thefts from cars and trucks around the Windsor and Essex County region. Forensic officers found nearly 30 pieces of mail, numerous phones, identification, and keys in the stolen car when they processed it.
