A southern Indiana man said his car was stolen from the Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport and stripped down to the frame while he was on a business trip.
Todd Turner, from Corydon, Indiana, said he was the original owner of a 2016 red Dodge Charger Scat Pack.
Turner said he parked the car in a parking garage at Louisville’s airport late last month while he was traveling for work. Then, a phone call alerted him that the car was stolen on the morning on January 30, around 7 a.m.
He ended up learning the car had been found in Louisville, but not in the condition he had hoped. It was towed to an impound lot, where Turner went to see it Tuesday.
According to a statement from Natalie Chaudoin, director of public relations at the Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport, SDF does not comment on specific cases that are still open and ongoing but said it is experiencing the same nationwide trend concerning auto thefts where thieves are targeting select Dodge vehicles with high-performance engines.
Chaudoin added that since late December 2023, seven Dodge vehicles were reported stolen from the parking garage at SDF, with five of these vehicles recovered.
Turner said he has been parking in the garage for 10 years, but things will change now.
Chaudoin said parking facilities at SDF are under 24-hour video surveillance and routinely patrolled by law enforcement with the airport’s Public Safety Department.
According to the statement from SDF, the airport’s Public Safety Department is working with area law enforcement as investigations remain open and ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to call the Louisville Metro Police Department tip line at 574-LMPD.
