4 men on student visas arrested after cars broken into, items stolen in Oakville

On the morning of Nov. 24 officers were called to the area of Rosehill Drive and Shady Glen Road on reports of car windows being smashed and cars broken into overnight.

A white Honda Civic sedan was seen in the area at the time of the thefts.

Over twenty vehicles were damaged and multiple personal items inside — including cash and debit and credit cards — were taken.

Some of the debit and credit cards were used later for purchases at commercial locations in the GTA.

The following week on Dec. 1 around 1:30 a.m. police responded to a report of a vehicle being broken into on Meadow Marsh Crescent, also in Oakville.
