He was one of eight suspected car criminals arrested over the weekend by Warwickshire Police, who seized four stolen motors in a crackdown on vehicle crime.
Detective Inspector Wayne Reynolds said: “With the help of the public we can continue to tackle vehicle crime.
“Taking simple precautions to protect your vehicle makes it harder for criminals to operate in the county.
“Providing information can also be crucial; so let us know of anyone acting suspiciously around vehicles or anyone you believe is involved in vehicle crime.”
