An 88 year-old Kemble area man was injured in a collision Thursday morning.
Around 8:30 AM the man was driving his Hyundai Elantra southbound in the 1100 block of 1st Avenue West. The Hyundai crashed into the rear of a Jeep Patriot that was stopped due to heavy traffic. The force of the impact sent the Jeep into the rear of a Honda Pilot.
The driver of the Jeep, a 39 year old Owen Sound woman, received minor injuries that did not require emergency treatment. The driver of the Honda, a 42 year-old Owen Sound woman, was not injured.
Sometime between 8:45 AM and 4:10 PM a pick-up truck was stolen from the north parking lot of the Family Health Team located at 1415-1st Avenue West.
The truck is a black 2006 GMC Sierra extended cab pickup truck. It has Ontario Licence Plate 9809FM. The vehicle has several extra identifying features including tinted windows, orange cab lights along the top of the cab, a black bug deflector with silver lettering that says "Tucker Farms", and a chrome tool box with red lights along the rear edge. It also has a CASE 1H (type of tractor) sticker in the rear window, a 5th wheel plate in the rear box and oversized mirrors.
Anyone who may have information about this theft is asked to contact the Owen Sound Police Service or Crimestoppers.
