A 29-year-old Unity man has been arrested and charged with the theft of multiple vehicles.

On Wednesday at 9:25 a.m., Unity RCMP received a report of suspicious activity in Salvador. Officers learned a man was seen entering a black truck that left Salvador heading southbound on Highway #31. Officers later received a report of a stolen vehicle matching the description of the truck.

A traffic stop was attempted near Salvador and initiated a traffic stop; however, the truck fled from police. Shortly after the vehicle was found abandoned near Denzil.

That very same day, RCMP received a separate report of a stolen grey truck in the Denzil area. Officers found it in the Town of Unity, empty.

Investigation led officers to the home of Ricky Vidnes. He faces seven charges and is scheduled to appear in North Battleford Provincial Court on September 29.
