A Guelph woman faces several charges after officers recovered a large amount of stolen property from two storage units and her vehicle.

In late March, Guelph police executed a search warrant at a storage unit in the south end. Officers recovered power tools which had been reported stolen three weeks earlier during a break-in to an east end home under renovation.

The evening of March 27, a break-in attempt was reported at a residence on Stone Road East. It is alleged the woman drove a male to that location for the purpose of committing an offence.

A woman was arrested around noon Wednesday as she sat in the driver’s seat of a pickup at an address on York Road. A search of the pickup revealed a large amount of suspected stolen property including bicycles, tools, electronics and identity documents. Officers also seized approximately $1,000 worth of crystal methamphetamine, a digital scale and $3,500 in cash.

Later Wednesday, officers searched a storage unit in Fergus and recovered bicycles and other sports equipment, tools, electronics and copper wire.

A 26-year-old woman faces charges including break and enter, possessing stolen property over $5,000, possessing controlled substances for the purpose of trafficking and several counts of breaching court orders. She was held for a bail hearing.
