Three people are facing charges after police recovered a stolen vehicle during a break-and-enter.
Around 11 p.m. on January 30, officers were patrolling South Windsor when they spotted a white Toyota matching the description of a vehicle reported stolen two weeks ago.
Officers followed the vehicle to a home on Metcalfe Street. Two men broke into the building while a woman stayed in the driver's seat.
The men returned to the car empty-handed when police intercepted the vehicle.
All three people took off on foot but were quickly arrested without incident.
A 34-year-old was charged with possession of stolen property over $5,000, break and enter and breach of probation.
A 48-year-old was charged with possession of stolen property over $5,000, break and enter and failure to comply with a release order.
Finally, a 42-year-old was charged with possession of stolen property over $5,000 and break and enter.
