BURLINGTON, ON March 8, 2012 It was reported as stolen but it may have been more of a prank. A Boothman Avenue resident left a car idling in the drive way. That’s a no, no – Burlington has an anti-idling by-law.
Sometime after 6:40 a.m. on March 6th, someone other than the owner of the car, a 2002 Hyundai, drove it out of the driveway and abandoned it later on Easterbrook Avenue. At that time of the morning I think we are looking at a commuter heading for work – he would have been late that morning.
The Hyundai Accent was not damaged. There is no suspect information as this time.
