Toronto police say a 19-year-old is facing 44 charges in connection with numerous robberies across Ontario.

They say the string of robberies began on Nov. 6 and continued across the province until Nov. 22.

They allege the man was involved in seven financial robberies, two retail robberies and several car and gas thefts in different jurisdictions.

Investigators allege the man stole nine vehicles in Toronto, Vaughan, Bolton, Caledon, and Collingwood, where he was chased by police.

They say he was also allegedly involved in hit-and-run accidents.

Police say they charged Joseph Ross, 19, of Mississauga after a pursuit by Toronto police on Wednesday.

He's scheduled to appear in court next week.
