Original post:Last night, the 1993 silver Lincoln Town Car of local television and newspaper personality, Dave Silverbrand, was taken from the driveway of his Cutten home.

Silverbrand said he heard the sound of a truck idling last night outside his home office window but “thought nothing of it.” However, this morning he discovered his vehicle was gone even though it had been locked and he still had the keys.

Silverbrand described the car as having “a broken right rear taillight, a broken front turning signal and a long scratch on the passenger-side doors.” He also said that “neither of the passenger-side doors are functional” and the vehicle “contained nothing of value except for the handicapped placard on the rear-view mirror.” The car’s license plate is 4SPK304.
