Lincoln Police say a man watched as a woman stole his car while he was inside Hurts donuts at 10th and P Street around 2:30 Monday morning.  Sergeant Chris Vollmer says the victim parked his 2006 Dodge Charger on P Street.

“Victim reported he left the vehicle unlocked and running, but noticed an unknown female watching his car after he exited. The victim lingered by his vehicle until he observed the female walk away, then he continued into the doughnut shop.”

Vollmer says while he was in the shop he saw the woman getting into his vehicle.   “The victim was able to open his passenger door, as the female drove away in his vehicle.”   The man’s cellphone was in the vehicle, but he was able to use an app to locate the car.

It indicated the vehicle was westbound on Hwy 34.    The Nebraska State Patrol was notified and, with the help of the Seward County Sheriff’s Office , the vehicle was stopped just outside of Waco

30 year old Kayla Steele was taken into custody and booked into the Seward County Jail.
