Man allegedly steals truck to drive to vehicle theft hearing in Pawnee County

STILLWATER, Okla. (KFOR) — The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says they arrested a man in Pawnee County earlier this week for allegedly stealing a truck so that he could drive to his court date for a stolen vehicle possession charge.

Kody Adams was reportedly at a Stillwater gas station asking people for a ride to his court date in Pawnee County.

OHP says that when Adams couldn't find a ride, he "borrowed" a LifeNet ambulance supervisor truck that was left running to make it to the courthouse.

An OHP Trooper caught Adams walking in at the courthouse and arrested him after he allegedly admitted to the theft. Adams was taken to his court date, then back to Payne County.

According to OHP, Adams' court date in Pawnee County was for possession of a stolen vehicle.
