Car Recovered After Carjacking

Lexington Police say they found the stolen Hyundai Sonata, which had been taken earlier in the day Tuesday, with two people inside: Jermaine Smith, 23, and Brandon Ridley, 21.

Officials say the two men didn’t steal the car, but were both charged with receiving stolen property.

Smith was additionally charged with trafficking a controlled substance.

Police say this is the sixth car believed to be connected with other cars stolen.

The car will be returned to its owner.
