Man looks for car taken by Craigslist mechanic

A victim in the 1000 block of Joffre Place already had his vehicle air conditioning fixed by a mechanic he found on Craigslist, then let the guy take his other vehicle to have some body work done.

Two weeks later, he was still looking for his vehicle.

The Craigslist mechanic continues to take the victim’s calls, but said the vehicle (prepaid) was still being worked on at a friend’s garage in Moraine. He failed to give the site.

Police are trying to motivate the guy to return the vehicle by calling him, but he didn’t answer their initial calls.
