Taylor was charged with first-degree larceny and failure to submit to fingerprints. He additionally was charged on warrants with two counts of violation of probation.

Arraigned on Monday, Taylor is next due Aug. 21 in New London Superior Court.

Police said the stolen vehicle has been returned to its registered owner.
