An Oklahoma man was arrested after being accused of driving a stolen vehicle to the courthouse. The man, whose name was not released, was charged with possession of a stolen vehicle and driving under suspension.
The incident took place in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where the man was reportedly attempting to attend a court hearing. However, police were alerted to the stolen vehicle and confronted the man when he arrived at the courthouse parking lot.
