Days before Christmas, Bay City Police arrested Armando Lara for stealing a brand new Kia Telluride from a parking lot and crashing it into a Walmart pole. The car’s owner, Tiffany Sanchez, left it running while shopping. Lara, 38, was identified after fleeing the scene and later apprehended on Seventh Street. He’s charged with unauthorized use of a motor vehicle and failure to identify, held on a $12,500 bond. Police remind residents to ensure their cars are locked.
