A pickup that was stolen twice has now been impounded twice.
On Sunday, police were called to an impound lot at 1334 N. Ohio Street owned by Palmer Towing for the report of a stolen pickup, Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said this morning.
Sometime between 2-5 p.m. Sunday, someone cut the lock on the gate and stole a red 2003 Chevrolet Silverado pickup. The pickup, belonging to Krier Mowing and Electric in Concordia, had been reported stolen, had been found by the Salina Police Department, and had been impounded at the Palmer lot, Forrester said.
The Kansas license plate from the pickup was found in the grass. Forrester said a Kansas license plate from a GMC Suburban in the lot -- 639 MUP -- was later found on the stolen pickup.
The pickup was valued at $8,000. The lock was valued at $10.
Forrester said that at 12:45 a.m. this morning, officers found the stolen pickup at the Econo Lodge, 636 Westport Boulevard.
The Salina Police Department impounded the pickup once again.
