Kaiden Kanalas, 18, of Welland, Ont., was arrested in Lincoln, outside Fredericton, on Dec. 17 and charged with counts alleging he possessed a stolen Ford Fiesta belonging to Suburban Auto Parts Inc. in Ontario, possessed stolen licence plates, breached probation, and that he breached a court order barring him from from driving any car or possessing licence plates of any kind.

Though he was initially held for a bail hearing, the Crown consented to his release Dec. 22, subject to conditions that included attending court.
