A person whose car was parked on the street saw their vehicle being hooked up to a tow truck at 2:30 a.m. and called police, suspecting it was being stolen.
Police arrested the tow truck driver in the area of Isabella and Elgin streets.

No charges were announced. In an email, Ottawa police said the matter remains under investigation.
