Police arrest man with homemade license plate drawn with crayon on a paper bag
A
man with a homemade license plate drawn with crayon on a paper grocery
bag was arrested after Indiana State Troopers stopped to lend the
stranded motorist a helping hand.
Officers Craig Woodcox and Zarek
Finley were driving along the I-80 Toll Road in Steuben County,
Indiana, at approximately 2:30 p.m. on Thursday afternoon when they saw a
man standing next to a Toyota Corolla on the side of the road tending
to a flat tire.
But when the Indiana State Troopers pulled over to help the man, things began to quickly unravel.
The
man identified himself as Joshua Lewis-Brown, 20, from Rochester, New
York and told the officers that he was unable to change the tire and
needed a tow truck. But when Woodcox and Finley were about to oblige his
request, they noticed that the license plate was hand-written in crayon
on a paper grocery bag. (MORE: Suspect hunted in vandalism of California synagogue being investigated as a hate crime)

Thursday, Dec. 12 for allegedly stealing a car in Pennsylvania. (Indiana
State Police DepartmenThe
police then ran a check on the vehicle using the Vehicle Identification
Number rather than the license plate which ended up leading to even
more suspicion.
“Woodcox discovered the Toyota had been reported
as stolen out of State College, Pennsylvania the day prior. The
Troopers’ also found that Brown had never been licensed to operate a
motor vehicle in any state, and was currently on probation for Grand
Larceny,” the Indiana State Police said in a statement.
Finley
then placed Lewis-Brown under arrest and he was subsequently booked
into custody and charged with Possession of Stolen Property, a Level 5
Felony, and Operating Without Ever Obtaining a License, a Level C
Misdemeanor. (MORE: Dad dies after falling off roof while hanging Christmas lights with his son)
According
to the Indiana State Police as reported by authorities in Pennsylvania,
it is alleged that the vehicle had been stolen when the owner left it
unattended and unlocked with the engine running in order to keep the car
warm outside of a local grocery store in Pennsylvania. But when the
owner made his quick purchase and left the store he found that his
vehicle was missing.
Brown will be held on the Indiana charges, and then will face extradition back to Pennsylvania pending their local charges.
