A suspect is facing multiple charges after being arrested early Monday.

A 911 call reporting a disturbance brought Sault Ste. Marie Police to the south end of Grand Boulevard around 5:30 a.m.

Arriving officers found a suspect they say was breaching the conditions of their release order and who was also wanted on a warrant.

“Following their arrest, a search of their property found the accused to be in possession of keys and ownership of a vehicle which had been reported stolen, along with other stolen property and a break in instrument,” police said in a news release.

Shawn Seymour, 22, has been charged with:

  • Theft of a Motor Vehicle
  • Possession of Property Obtained by Crime
  • Failure to Comply with Judicial Release Order x2

The accused is being held in custody pending a bail hearing.
