A 21 year old man from Orillia has been charged with harrasment and careless storage of a firearm by North Bay Police after an incident Tuesday.

Police say they received a complaint from a motorist that they had been followed northbound on Hwy 11 from Powassan, and around the city, with the vehicle being driven aggressively.

Officers stopped a white van on the bypass and arrested the driver.

Police say it turned out the van was reported stolen from the Orillia area.

A loaded non-restricted firearm was also recovered from the van.
