A St. Paul man was sentenced to 26 months in jail on felony charges after stealing a vintage Corvette from a Lake Elmo Airport Hangar on Jan. 1, 2012.

The man, identified in court documents as Tommy Spack, Jr., was found guilty of stealing a 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe Stingray. Court documents said the theft was reported after the male victim’s girlfriend called and had a maintenance man check the hangar where the Corvette was stored when another man threatened to steal her boyfriend’s property from the hangar.

Court documents said the victim told Washington County Sheriff’s deputies that his girlfriend said Spack Jr. and another woman stole the Corvette. Court documents indicate that the victim’s girlfriend said someone had told her what happened after that person overheard the pair talk about how they stole the car.

That's totally nuts. Couldn't he figure out he'd get caught one way or the other? I guess he just wanted to stay on tax payers' money for a while...
