The owner of the pickup truck that was stolen and used in a high-speed chase between Seneca and Ontario counties says he only left it idling for 30 or 40 seconds.
Erik Winks, who spoke with the Auburn Citizen about his pickup truck, talked about his pickup truck being stolen from his driveway.
It was about 6:20 a.m. He ran inside to grab his lunch after his truck was running- and when he came out- the vehicle was gone.
There was approximately $600 in damage to the truck, and approximately $4,000 in personal items were never recovered from it.
