Wilson, WI -- Police say a snowmobile thief was found out Monday when he brought a stolen snowmobile in for repairs to the store it was stolen from several days before.

 

A 17-year-old Town of Wilson boy took a $9,000 snowmobile and a $1,000 snowmobile trailer from Sheboygan Yamaha, N7402 Highway 42, on Thursday night, said Detective David Obremski of the Sheboygan County Sheriff’s Department.

 

The boy then brought the 2006 Yamaha snowmobile in to the dealership for minor repairs on Friday, before the dealership noticed it had been stolen, Obremski said. The theft was reported on Saturday, and on Monday the dealership called the sheriff’s department after employees realized they had serviced the vehicle on Friday.

 

The boy was arrested about 6 p.m. Monday after a deputy went to the N5700 block of Wind Dancer Court — identified as the boy’s home because the repair was paid for with a check — and found the snowmobile sitting atop the stolen trailer, Obremski said. He said the teen first claimed to have purchased the snowmobile over the Internet, but later admitted to the theft.

 

The boy is expected to be charged today with felony theft, misdemeanor obstructing and officer and felony bail jumping, from a prior conviction for sexual assault.

I love how he just has it sitting out so everyone can see it, rather than hiding it for awhile.

Is this the same guy that stole the lottery ticket, found out he won, and tried to redeem it at the same store he stole it from?
