Two men arrested for stealing two pickup trucks

Tuesday, June 24, 2008

Police arrested two men last Friday in connection with stolen vehicles.

At 10:45 Friday morning, Lawrence police were called to Crown Automotive. The Dealership reported missing two red Chevy pickup trucks.

The Office of Kansas Public Safety located one of the vehicles left in the parking lot of a business at the 2400 block of Iowa St. When officers arrived, they found one of the suspects in a second vehicle. As the officers approached the suspect for questioning, the suspect and another man drove to the back of the building, then they fled on foot.

The KU Public Safety Office arrested one suspect by Clinton Place Apartments. After an hour of investigation, police at the 2400 block of Melrose, located the second suspect.

Randy Habiger, sales manager at Crown Automotive, said that both vehicles had been returned to the dealership undamaged within the day. The dealership was able to quickly locate the trucks with the help of the Lawrence Police Department and the built-in OnStar navigation equipment.
