Stolen bicycle, credit card recovered in road rage investigation

Kingston Police nabbed a suspect who was also wanted in Brockville.

What started as an act of road rage turned in to something more.

Kingston Police received a call on the morning of June 23 about someone damaging a vehicle while it was travelling along Portsmouth Road.

Investigators says someone on a bicycle threw an object damaging the rear windshield.

They were able to get a description of the suspect through footage from the vehicle's dash cam.

The next day, members of the Community Oriented Response and Enforcement unit located the suspect near Princess St. and Sir John A Macdonald Blvd.

They made an arrest and also recovered a Trek bicycle that was reported stolen and an American Express credit card which was stolen from a vehicle the day before.

A further investigation revealed that the accused was also wanted by Brockville Police for failing to show up in court.

A 44-year-old from Kingston is facing a number of charges and was held for a bail hearing.
