A couple spent the weekend in the Lincoln County jail after they were busted by North Platte Police in a stolen vehicle.

On October 23, at around 3:29 p.m., an officer with the North Platte Police Department responded to a residence in the 1100 block of South Tabor Streets in regards to a vehicle that was stolen in McCook.

It was reported that Amy Cones and Christopher Davis had stolen the vehicle earlier in the day.

The owner of the vehicle stated that they had given Cones the keys to the vehicle so she could obtain some property from it.

Instead of retrieving the property in question, police say Cones and Davis took the vehicle.

It was reported to McCook Police that Cones and Davis may have driven the vehicle to a residence in North Platte.

As the officer arrived in the area, he located the vehicle with Cones and Davis sitting inside of it.

The duo was arrested and jailed at the Lincoln County Detention Center on a felony charge of possession of stolen property.

Davis was also cited for theft from a prior unrelated shoplifting case.  4

Police say theft charges will likely be filed in Red Willow County as well, but it’s unclear if that has been done.

Both are being held on ten percent of $15,000 bond.
