Police Blotter: Plainfield Woman Nabbed for Out-of-State Car Theft
Arrests and incidents reported by Plainfield police, other agencies, Dec. 22-Jan. 11.
Jan. 11
Carolyn A. Edmonds, 43, of the 14000 block of Penn Road, Plainfield, was arrested by Plainfield police and booked into the Will County jail on charges of possession of a stolen vehicle and driving on a suspended license, and was taken into custody on a warrant from the state of Iowa, police said. Sgt. Mike Fisher said Edmonds was stopped by police after an officer ran her license plate and it came back as a stolen vehicle. According to Iowa police, Edmonds had rented the vehicle while visiting family there and failed to return it, or make any payments, Fisher said. The Plainfield officer who ran the plate initially lost sight of the vehicle, but was able to locate the allegedly stolen car in the parking lot of Edmonds' apartment complex on Penn Road, where she was taken into custody. According to Fisher, Edmonds will likely be transported back to Iowa, where her bond has been set at $10,000.

How did the officer lose sight of the vehicle? Was he distracted on the job after Notre Dame lost last week?
