Pierce County Sheriff’s deputies arrested an alleged repeat car thief in Spanaway on March 1,At 7 a.m. on March 1, a deputy was sent to a suspicious car in the area of 170th Street East and 6th Avenue East in Spanaway. The 911 caller said that a white man was slumped over in the driver’s seat of a blue Hyundai Elantra.The driver woke up and when he saw the deputy, immediately recklessly sped away. The deputy couldn’t chase him since car theft is not a pursuable offense.
When deputies got there, the man wasn’t in the car. Deputies thought the man likely went through the store and out the back exit to get away from deputies, so they drove to the back of the store.Deputies chased him down and took him into custody. He had pliers in his pocket that are commonly used to start Kia and Hyundai cars that don’t have engine immobilizers, like the one he was driving earlier.
