Child found safe after car stolen from Nicholasville Road gas station
LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) — A child who was sitting in a car that was stolen Thursday morning from a Speedway is OK and reunited with family, Lexington police said.
The car was stolen around 4:30 a.m. at the Speedway gas station at 2490 Nicholasville Road. A child was inside, police told ABC 36.
The car was eventually found abandoned on Tates Creek Road with the child inside.
The child was checked out by first responders and has been reunited with family.
A customer at that gas station we spoke to said if this happened to him, he wouldn’t know what to do.
“I can’t imagine walking out and my car being gone and my child in it. I don’t walk outside without locking my car anyway, much less with a kid in the car you know what I mean? So, you know, can’t be that trusting nowadays,” said Ronald Murphy.
No suspect description was available.
