A Glasgow man was arrested by Marshall police Saturday, July 11, in connection with a vehicle theft that occurred earlier that day.

A 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix was reported stolen from a Marshall residence at 3:06 a.m.

A passerby found the car, overturned, in a ditch on Mt. Olive Road and then alerted authorities to its status.

Officers later received information that led them to Marshall's Budget Inn, where at 6:40 p.m., they arrested one person inside a room in connection with the stolen vehicle and other unrelated warrants.

That is not wonder at that eye sore. They have the market cornered on the shady people.
