HOLLIS — After locating a stolen vehicle at Nartoff Cemetery late Monday night, Hollis Police, with assistance from Pepperell Police Department, have arrested a suspect linked to the theft.
The vehicle, reported stolen days earlier from Brattleboro, was found parked and unattended around 11 p.m. on June 10.
Despite a thorough search by officers and K9 units, no suspects were located at the time, and the car was towed and secured at the Hollis Police Department.
On the morning of June 11, Officer Kyle Connors encountered two males walking on Farley Road.
One of them, Anthony Wilson, 26, was found to have an active warrant for his arrest issued by Keene District Court for failing to comply with sex offender regulations.
Upon arrest and subsequent questioning, Wilson confessed to stealing the vehicle and driving it to Hollis.
He faces charges of Receiving Stolen Property, a felony due to his criminal history, Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle, and Operating Without a Valid License, both misdemeanors.
Unable to post the $800 cash bail, Wilson was transported to the Hillsborough County House of Corrections.
His arraignment is scheduled for June 12 at the 9th Circuit Court, Nashua District Division.
