INDIANAPOLIS – A man who stole a police car after having his hands cuffed behind his back gave himself up to state troopers in Indiana after two days on the run.
William Blankenship (22), surrendered on Thursday to two state troopers at his family home in Knox in the midwestern state, police said.
Blankenship had been pulled over for speeding on Tuesday, handcuffed and put in the back seat of a police car after an officer reported seeing drug paraphernalia in his car. Blankenship then drove off in the police car. He was charged with theft and more charges are expected to follow. – (Reuters)
