Waterloo regional police made two arrests Tuesday after their automated licence plate recognition system alerted them to a vehicle associated with a wanted man.
Officers were on proactive patrol in downtown Galt over the noon hour yesterday when the automated licence plate recognition (ALPR) technology in their cruiser flagged a suspicious vehicle.
They conducted a traffic stop at Hespeler Road and Brooklyne Road and arrested the driver, a 36-year-old male, and the passenger, a 27-year-old female, both of whom were wanted by Peel Regional Police.
Officers also located and seized a bulletproof vest.
The accused parties were released into the custody of Peel Regional Police as part of their ongoing investigation.
