Robbery suspect accused of stealing Chrysler Pacifica from Fort Erie dealership.
A man from Nova Scotia is facing robbery charges following an incident in Fort Erie.
Police were called to Patterson's Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram dealership on Garrison Road around 11:19 a.m. on Wednesday.
Investigators say a man asked to take a vehicle out for a test drive.
He returned to the dealership, pulled over, and made a gesture suggesting he had a firearm before demanding the salesperson to get out of the car.
The suspect then took off in a ceramic grey Chrysler Pacifica, heading eastbound on Garrison Road.
Detectives identified 45 year old Juan Feliz Sanchez of Nova Scotia as a suspect, and he was arrested by Sault Ste. Marie police earlier today.
He was held in custody pending a bail hearing.
Upon his return to Niagara, he will face the Niagara Regional Police Service charge.
