    A dog was killed in one of the Langley incidents.


    A 24-year-old man from Abbotsford has been arrested by police, who allege he was in breach of a recognizance over a condition that he was not be in a vehicle without the registered owner.


    The first incident was reported just after 8 p.m. involving a small pickup truck that police say was stolen in neighbouring Abbotsford.


    They say it was found on fire about 2 1/2 hours later on Highway 1.


    Shortly after, police say a car was stolen and the suspect was arrested in that vehicle.


    The RCMP is asking for anyone with dashboard cameras to review their footage to see if they may have recorded the pickup truck.
