FedEx truck stolen in Salina

SALINA — A Lincoln man was arrested last week after a FedEx truck he was driving in the Walmart parking lot was discovered to be stolen. Salina police said officers were sent to Walmart on a report of suspicious activity with a FedEx truck being driven in the parking lot by a white male wearing a leather jacket, hat and jeans, and not a FedEx uniform. One officer saw the truck in the northwest corner of the parking lot and a man matching the description of the reported driver pouring a liquid into the engine compartment that was running on the ground.
