Woman wrongfully arrested for car theft after identity stolen
WTHR
NDIANAPOLIS (WTHR) — The family of a woman whose purse and ID were stolen hope police can find the woman using her identification. So far police suspect the thief has stolen three vehicles using the victims driver’s license.
The latest happened last month when the suspect presented the Driver’s License of Kristen Parr at West Main Auto Sales in Greenfield, Indiana.
The first time the woman used Parr’s ID to test drive a Chevy Cruze. She was accompanied by a woman who she referred to as her aunt. The two women returned the Chevy without incident. Then the next day the same woman returned to the lot to test drive an Acadia SUV. She told the sales representative that her aunt was at the store down the street and that she would be right back with the SUV.
The car lot made a copy of the driver’s license and handed her the keys. But the woman never returned with the SUV.
The owners of West Main Auto Lot filed a stolen vehicle report with Greenfield Police and shared Parr’s Identification. During the time of the report being taken the owner of the lot could not retrieve surveillance right away. The detective left his business card and was assured by the witnesses that the woman on the ID named Kristen Parr is the same woman who left with their vehicle.
