Man charged after fiery crash

A man has been arrested following a crash that caused an east-end home to erupt in flames.

Windsor police determined the car was stolen from Ford Boulevard earlier that night.

A 27-year-old male from Windsor is facing a charge of possession of stolen property under $5,000.
