Driver arrested in stolen truck case
EVANSTON - A 29-year-old New Burlington man was arrested Sunday morning after police said he crashed a stolen car into the rear of a semi-tractor trailer on southbound Interstate 71.
William Harrison of the 1200 block of Adams Road was charged with receiving stolen property and failure to comply, the Hamilton County Sheriff's office said.
