Retired pastor's 1980 Cadillac stolen 5 times in 5 years - KSAT San Antonio
Edward Moore shook his head in disbelief as he waited at the Growden Road city impound lot to recover his 1980 Cadillac DeVille, which he said has been stolen five times since 2010. "The car is 35 years old, but it's all I got," Moore said. "But when you wake up five times and it's gone, that's just too much," Moore said. A spokeswoman for the San Antonio Police Department said the same vehicle being stolen and recovered five times actually is not that unusual since the thefts occurred over a five-year time span. Yet, Moore said he's not only worried about his predicament, he's also concerned for his neighbors. Moore said he's been using a screwdriver to start his car ever since the steering column he'd paid several hundred dollars to replace was smashed open yet again. He said this time, when the vehicle was stolen Friday, it had a full tank of gas, but was empty when it was found the next day. It proved a major complication when Moore tried to get his car out of the impound at a cost of $268. Luckily, he had a credit card to pay the tow truck driver to take the car to a nearby gas station. Moore said he's also upset apartment management didn't immediately show police the suspect captured on surveillance video. Source: www.ksat.com
