Ontario Provincial Police say two stolen vehicles have been recovered after an inspection at an eastern Ontario weigh station.

In a post on X, the OPP said officers from the Ministry of Transportation were conducting an inspection at the Curry Hill Scales, east of Cornwall, at around 9 a.m. Monday and found two vehicles inside a sea container.

The vehicles, a Toyota Tundra and a Toyota Land Cruiser, had been reported stolen from the Greater Toronto Area, OPP said.

Police arrested a 63-year-old from Saint-Hubert, Que. at the scene. He is charged with two counts of possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000 and one of trafficking in stolen good over $5,000.

Last month, police found stolen vehicles in sea containers on Highway 401 near Cornwall and at the OnRoute in Trenton.
