OPP say a man charged after a single-vehicle rollover on Highway 401 on Friday morning, was also involved in another incident on Saturday.
Quinte West officers were called to reports of an erratic driver in the eastbound lanes around 10:00a.m., with the car crashing near St. Hillaire Road about 15 minutes later.
Police say the driver got out of the car and became aggressive with officers, so a taser was used to get him under control and take him into custody, before he was released.
On Saturday afternoon, officers got a call about a man trying to steal a car on Campbell Street.
