U-Haul van stolen from Grimsby storage business

Niagara police are searching for two suspects after they allegedly stole a U-Haul van from a storage business in Grimsby.

Two suspects gained access to a commercial property early Friday morning in the area of Roberts Rd. and South Service Rd.

A man and a woman reportedly used a sledgehammer to smash open lock boxes that contained keys for vans parked on the property.

The pair then allegedly used the keys to steal a white, 2022 GMC Savanna cargo van.

The stolen van has a large, $19.99 U-Haul advertisement on both sides and an Arizona license plate of #AL68425.
