RECOVERED STOLEN VEHICLE - On Jan. 31, 36-year-old Sergio Armand Pruneda, of Pleasant Grove, went into Nordstrom and stole a leather jacket and white shirt. He was seen by store security, but managed to drive away in a white Nissan Frontier with Colorado license plates. Officer Scott Spieth took the shoplifting call at 9:03 p.m. and watched in-store surveillance video of the suspect that not only showed Pruneda stealing the coat and shirt from the store, but also provided the license number of the truck he was driving. When Officer Spieth ran the plate, he found that the Nissan had been reported stolen out of Colorado. Officer Spieth made the other officers aware of these facts via radio. At 9:20 p.m, Officer Eric Ahl-born Ahl-born was fueling his patrol car at Holiday Oil on Center Street and saw the stolen truck drive past. He followed the truck as it traveled trav-eled west on Center Street and then northbound on 1-15. A high risk traffic stop was made on the freeway and Pruneda and two passengers were taken out of the stolen truck at gunpoint. Pruneda, who has a history of arrests for drugs and domestic violence, was arrested for possession pos-session of a stolen vehicle, possession pos-session of stolen property, retail theft and driving on a suspended license. The passengers in the stolen truck were uninvolved in the theft or possession of it, but had problems of their own. 25-year-old Amanda Evans, of Orem, was arrested for possession of a prescription drug without a pre CSST KSACnCES PDa LESS!

Thayer has been booked into the Utah County Jail 13 times since turning 18 in 2003. He was booked into the Utah County Jail yet again, making it number 14 in just over four years. STOLEN CAR RECOVERED - Officer Scott Spieth spotted a car stalled in traffic Wednesday evening. Jan 30, at 800 S. 1200 West. He stopped to give a hand as the driver, 27-year-old Casey Bryson, of Springville, was using a gas can to put gasoline into the brand new 2008 Chevy Malibu with California plates. After getting the car filled up and on its way, Officer Spieth decided to run the license plate. He found the Malibu it had been reported stolen from a rental company in Long Beach. Off icer Spieth had stayed behind the Malibu until the check came back and stopped the car. The driver, Casey Bryson, started cursing at the officer about being stopped. That was short-lived however, for when he was told the car he was driving was stolen, he was more than willing to implicate his friend, Paul Michael, as the person involved. Casey said Paul Michael had loaned him the car to drive and was at that very moment, back in Springville at Bryson's home. Officer Spieth contacted the Long Beach Police Department and found that Paul Michael was indeed the suspect in the theft, based on the rental agreement. r-n5 nr. u:. iv x i ti Springville Police assisted by going to Bryson's home and ar resting 28-year-old Paul Micheal,' of Provo. Springville PD took Michael Mi-chael to the Utah County Jail. Officer Offi-cer Spieth went to the jail to interview inter-view Michael, since he was going there anyway. Casey Bryson had been arrested for a warrant. Paul Michael admitted to not returning return-ing the car according to the rental agreement and leaving California with the car. Ecstacy was also found in the car which Michael admitted belonged to him. THEFT BY DECEPTION - 26-year-old Jason Reese White, of Spanish Fork, was arrested Wednesday at his home by Orem officers for felony theft. White had gone to Mountain-land Mountain-land Plumbing on Tuesday and purchased 200 feet of copper tubing, valued at over $1000, and charged it to the account of a business in Spanish Fork. White did the same thing again on Wednesday. That made the people at Mountainland Plumbing Plumb-ing a little suspicious because the business the purchases were billed to didn't use copper in their operation. The Spanish Fork business was contacted and this was verified. Mountainland Plumbing had retained a license number to White's truck and officers of-ficers were able to locate White through his vehicle registration. It was verified with the Spanish Fork business that Jason White had no authorization to make copper purchases in the com- t pany name. White was arrested and booked into the Utah County Jail on theft charges. He reportedly report-edly sold the copper before he was arrested. 1 I The Orem Friendship Center Cen-ter will be closed Feb. 18 for FTesident's Day.
