Police are looking for a black car with purple flames that may have a connection to a Tuesday afternoon residential burglary in west Salina.

Christopher Lang, 37, of Salina, told police that he arrived home at approximately 1 p.m. Tuesday. He unlocked his front door, went inside, and then took his dogs out in the back yard, Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said this morning. Lang said he was only outside for approximately five minutes.

When he went back in the house, he discovered that his Sony PS5 gaming console and controller were missing, Forrester said. The two items together were valued at $1,000.

Witnesses told police that a smaller black car, possibly a Mitsubishi Eclipse, with purple flames was seen driving on the wrong side of the street. One witness said the car slowed down in front of Lang's residence, Forrester said.
