"Sounds a little weird to steal a car and dump it a mile away."
Kids do that kind of thing. I'm amazed at how many crimes are committed by teens in the wee hours. If my kid's not home with me at 3:00 a.m., I'm out looking for them.

Stole it in a moment of weakness. Realized they'd stolen a Minivan. ECH!

Someone upset with James Gang? James gangs is like a mile from where the van was found. Sounds a little weird to steal a car and dump it a mile away.
