FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Fargo police are warning winter drivers about stolen vehicles after a man drove off in a car that was left running, unattended and unlocked.

A woman ran into a Fargo gas station about 8:30 p.m. Thursday to make a quick purchase. When she returned to the parking lot, her car was gone. An officer who happened to be on patrol in the area spotted the vehicle shortly after it was stolen and arrested the suspect.

36 year-old Michael Mead Jr., of Fargo, is charged with possession of a stolen vehicle and drunken driving.
