Windsor police have arrested a 33-year-old man in a case of vehicle theft and credit card fraud.

The suspect then allegedly drove to a gas station at Tecumseh Road East and Huron Church Road, where he used the victim's credit card to make purchases.

Police reported on Tuesday that the suspect was arrested at a home on University Avenue West near Dougall Avenue.

He is charged with motor vehicle theft, possession of stolen property, possession of a stolen credit card, and wearing a disguise to commit an offence.
