LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) — Two Louisville Metro Police Department tow lot employees were caught on surveillance video taking items from vehicles headed for auction, but prosecutors said they won’t face criminal charges.
Emily Howell, a customer at one of the auctions, said she noticed something was missing from the 1996 GMC Sierra she bought in 2023. She paid more than $1,200 for the truck, mostly for the kayak and fishing poles that came with it. But when she got the vehicle, she said several items were gone.
“I noticed the kayak wasn’t on top,” Howell said. “I noticed the fishing poles were gone. The tool box in the back had been lifted up and rummaged through. That was very disappointing, because that was the reason I had bought the truck — for those items.”…
