On Sunday evening, police received a report from a female caller stating that her vehicle had been stolen and that she had sustained a lower leg injury.
The caller did not provide further details to police dispatchers.

A short time later, police located the vehicle nearby.
A 27-year-old Belleville man, identified as the complainant’s partner, informed officers that he had taken the car to run a brief errand and intended to return it shortly.
A check of the male revealed that he was wanted on outstanding warrants issued by Belleville police.
