RUTLAND — A 25-year-old man was arrested in Rutland yesterday.
Police say they arrested Ryan C. Johnson, of Rutland, for possession of stolen property.
Johnson’s arrest came after a wallet was reported stolen from a vehicle in Mendon.
An investigation led troopers to Johnson’s residence in Rutland City where they recovered the stolen wallet.
Police say Johnson is also being charged with two counts of grand larceny and aggravated operation without the owner’s consent and a second count of possession of the stolen property.
These charges stem from two separate incidents on June 29, involving the theft of tools and a 2022 GMC pickup truck that was used to transport the stolen tools.
On Monday, law enforcement recovered some of the stolen tools from Johnson’s residence as well.
He was processed and released on a citation to appear in court yesterday.
He was also issued court-ordered conditions of release.
