The K9 Unit was used to sniff out some bad guys in Stratford.
STRATFORD - A string of events lead to the arrest of two men from London yesterday in Stratford.
The two men first raised suspicions around noon hour when an officer spotted them in a 2000 Toyota Echo drive without a front licence plate. When the officer approached the vehicle, the two men exited the vehicle and walked away on foot.
After doing a search on the rear plate, the officer determined that the plate was reported stolen from the London area. The officer also found a life like Glock replica air pistol on the floor of the vehicle.
Officers found used syringes and ammunition for the air piston in the vehicle during a search at headquarters.
Later in the afternoon, around 3:30pm police received a call from a witness saying they saw two men trying to break into a coin box at the wash on Lorne Ave. When the men realized they were being watched, they left the scene.
Within a few minutes, police arrived and began a search with the K9 unit to track the suspects. Initially the K9 unit located only one suspect, but shortly after located the other suspect.
