Juvenile found

That 16-year-old police believe was connected with car thefts in the area was found Saturday night on the West Kentucky Parkway. He was stopped by a state trooper for a traffic violation while driving a Ford pick-up. State police found that the truck belonged to an 80-year-old man from Elizabethtown. The juvenile was taken into custody and later released to his parents. Because he is a juvenile, his name and the charges against him were not released by police.

Marion police believe the juvenile was with 18-year-old Jackie Lee Beasley last week when they allegedly stole a pickup truck from Conrad's parking lot. They are also suspected in other car thefts in Princeton and elsewhere in Kentucky. (see related blog below).
