Car Stolen In Newfoundland And Returned To Scene Of Crime A Day Later

The Canadian Press, 26 Jan, 2017 11:33 AM
    ST. JOHN'S, N.L. — Police in Newfoundland are scratching their heads after a pizza delivery man's car was stolen from a St. John's street — and returned to the scene of the crime a day later.
     
    Const. Geoff Higdon says the man was delivering a pizza to a home on Springdale Street early Saturday but when he came back outside, he saw his car driving away.
     
    Just over a day later, the Saturn was back parked on the street it was stolen from — and it was reportedly returned with a full tank of gas.
     
    Higdon says the culprits also left behind a losing lottery ticket.
     
    He says the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary has seized the vehicle and the investigation is ongoing.
