An Opelousas, Louisiana car dealer has been arrested and is facing charges after an investigation found four vehicles that are allegedly stolen on the dealer's lot.
Louisiana ranks among the top states for vehicle thefts, with over 10,000 stolen cars reported in 2022. Baton Rouge resident Brandi Jenkins learned this the hard way after police pulled her over and informed her that the used car she had just purchased was stolen. Now, she's struggling to get her money back.
When Tulsa police inquired about the vehicle she was driving, she explained that she ran into one of her former customers from Waffle House at a gas station, and that's when she was gifted the Jeep along with 10 bucks as an early "Birthday Tip".
