According to Joliet, Illinois police, one of their officers was investigating an accident when <strong>the arrestee pulled up in a car and asked for directions to Interstate 80<\/strong>. At that point, the officer saw that the car Moore was driving matched the description of a vehicle that was stolen earlier in the afternoon. Evidently, <strong>he was able to confirm his suspicions and stopped the driver.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As police <a href=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/is-a-state-without-police-really-possible\/?lang=en\"><strong>reports<\/strong><\/a> state, the driver stole the car from a BP gas station at 4 p.m. Friday afternoon. The owner apparently left the vehicle running and unlocked as he entered the store. Lafayette Moore was hanging around the gas station and didn&#8217;t think twice about it. When the car&#8217;s owner returned, it was gone. Now, <strong>Moore is in custody at the Will County Jail<\/strong> and has been held on $20,000 bail.<\/p>\n<p>You know, better use Google Maps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chicago police arrest Lafayette Moore for stopping to ask for directions while driving a car he stole in a gas station.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":176202,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1908],"tags":[2161],"class_list":["post-176204","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-viral","tag-alba-manuela"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin  - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Arrested after asking police for directions in stolen car - HIGHXTAR.<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Chicago police arrest Lafayette Moore for stopping to ask for directions while driving a car he stole in a gas station.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/arrested-after-asking-police-for-directions-in-stolen-car\/?lang=en\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Arrested after asking police for directions in stolen car\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Chicago police arrest Lafayette Moore for stopping to ask for directions while driving a car he stole in a gas station.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/arrested-after-asking-police-for-directions-in-stolen-car\/?lang=en\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"HIGHXTAR.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/highxtar\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-03-10T10:46:52+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/highxtar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/thumb-highxtar-detenido-robo-coche-policia-joliet.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"800\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Alba M.
