California viber busted in Oregon after running out of gas

Post by joatmon »

hmmm, California Viber, busted in Oregon. Going with Northwest forum instead of southwest, since northwest is lean on threads http://www.koin.com/Global/story.asp?S=6771525Quote »Felon Out Of Gas, Driven To JailPORTLAND - A driver who stayed in his car when it ran out of gas on the freeway got more response than he probably expected.When a white 2003 Pontiac Vibe ran out of gas and stopped on Interstate 5 at southbound exit 243 near the bottom of the off-ramp in the noontime heat Tuesday, an ODOT employee stopped to help and saw there was a person in the car. A check on the provided license plate revealed that San Bernardino County, California Sheriff's Department had flagged the car just days before as a felony vehicle associated with a suspect wanted for making threats.The car's owner, MacKenzie Scott McKernan, 32, was wanted on a felony warrant for Crimes against Persons for allegedly making terrorist threats against family which involved explosive devices or bombs.Oregon State Police troopers from Albany and Salem took McKernan into custody as a fugitive from justice. He was lodged in Marion County Jail.In case the car contained explosives, Oregon State Police blocked the southbound off-ramp while bomb specialists checked the car.They declared the vehicle safe, added gas and moved it away from the freeway.7/10/2007http://blog.oregonlive.com/bre....htmlQuote »Troopers arrest California fugitive in bomb threats on I-5 near AlbanyPosted by Elizabeth Suh July 10, 2007 18:35PMAn off-ramp to Interstate 5 north of Albany was closed this afternoon while police investigated a disabled car linked to a California man with a history of possessing explosives, the Oregon State Police reported.About noon, an Oregon Department of Transportation employee stopped to assist a car out of gas at exit 243.

Quote, originally posted by redlava »Probably won't see that story in the Pontiac Performance magazine. you might. if he made it from SB county(southern cali) all the way up to oregon on one tank, they might say a lil somethin. it would be wise for them to leave out the part about the bomb, n threats, n the guy being a fugitive, etc...
