Texas authorities told Road & Track that a porter at Parkway Chevrolet in Tomball, Texas, took a police Tahoe for a joyride and did doughnuts in a parking lot before being arrested.
The porter was arrested June 16 and charged with unauthorized use of a vehicle, a felony, according to the report.
“We found out about it through another law enforcement agency that had received a call about this parking lot where all these people were out in vehicles doing doughnuts, and that supposedly one of our patrol vehicles was out there,” Mark Herman, a Harris County constable, told Road & Track. “They caught a guy in the vehicle, and so we went out to the scene and there was a vehicle that we had dropped off at a dealership. This guy was a porter there and had taken it that evening from there.”
The police vehicle was at the dealership for maintenance. General Manager Forbes Durdin told Road & Track the porter “no longer works for us.”
The porter pleaded guilty and is set to serve two years’ probation and 40 hours of community service, according to court records reviewed by Road & Track.
