A London man faces multiple charges after a Thursday morning crash in Middlesex Centre.

Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officers were called shortly after 5:30 a.m. Thursday to Wonderland Road North and Ilderton Road, following a two-vehicle collision. One of the involved drivers was seen running away from the scene.

Following a search by the OPP's Emergency Services Team and a K-9 Unit, the suspect was found shortly after. It turned out that one of the vehicles involved in the crash was reported stolen from London.

The 43-year-old man is charged with possession of stolen property over $5,000, driving while prohibited, possession of a forged document, making a forged document, failure to remain at the scene of a crash, careless driving, and failure to comply with an order.

The suspect was held for bail, and the charges have not been proven in court.
