Ontario Provincial Police and Montreal police say they’ve struck a blow to car thieves with the arrest of 34 people in the Montreal area on outstanding warrants for vehicle thefts and other serious crimes in Ontario.
The arrests were part of Project Volcano, an operation by Ontario and Quebec police forces that took place over three days this week in the greater Montreal area. Many of those targeted are Quebecers who had been arrested and charged for vehicle theft and other crimes in Ontario between 2019 and 2023.
