Vehicles, it seems, may be the bane of Oakland resident Samuel George Botchvaroff's existence.

In recent months, the 24-year-old's vehicle was impounded during an arrest, leaving him without transportation.

On Tuesday, he needed to get to Vallejo for his arraignment in an auto theft case.

With no way to get there, he apparently stole a car in Oakland and drove it to Vallejo, where he attended court, California Highway Patrol officials said.

Meanwhile, officials were notified of the theft and tracked the car to the Vallejo courthouse, compliments of the car's LoJack device.

As Botchvaroff entered the car, officials said, they arrested him. He was booked into Solano County Jail on suspicion of auto theft and possession of stolen property.

I would say I don't blame the guy at all but he's not in Philadelphia. SEPTA on strike.

Uh, I can totally see someone in Philadelphia steal a car to get to their court-date, you know since their only way to get there is the train. Sort of voicing my feelings that Philadelphia is full of people that would resort to that.

But by all means. . .

He's nowhere near Philadelphia. Philadelphia has nothing to do with this story. Hope this helps!

This story occurs about 2500 miles from Philadelphia.

2500 miles is a really long train ride, no wonder he stole a car.

Sounds like some oblivious prick has never been to Oakland Philadelphia. The California Highway patrol are the biggest jerks out of all Philadelphia cops I swear to god.

If he lived in Venice then that would be really stupid because they don't even have roads there.

Philadelphia police dept. couldn't catch him because of the SEPTA strike, so they called in CHP for backup.

If you steal one of those boats do you have to sing anyway? I mean, I think if I was already breaking the law, Id probably say gently caress it. But then again, how many opportunities do you get to sing in Italian while stealing a boat?

Does the Philadelphia courthouse have aquatic access? Because, I mean, if they don't they should.

At least he isn't the guy from Ottawa who stole a Mazda CR-V from a dealership because he didn't have bus fare.

I'm pretty sure he never paid so that's just as good as stealing.

That wasn't Halle Berry, it was Scarlett Johansson, but people mix them up all the time. Halle Berry was Tom Hanks' friend in Philadelphia.

Didn't m. night shyamalan film a Halle/Will Smith/Scarlett porno in his home town of Philadelphia? No wonder the dude stole a car to get here. Philadelphia is the porn capitol of the world. He was just lookin to get into the biz to pay off his debts and that is reasonable.

That's called skyjacking.

Unless it happens in Philadelphia, in which case it is called 'passing your pilot's exam'.

Nonono, Will Smith was Tom Hanks' boyfriend in Philadelphia, Halle Berry was in the porno with Scarlett Johansson and that Mexican guy, Woody Allen or something.

Uhhh...pretty sure Woody Allen just goes by his wrestling name "The Rock" these days. Or he does in Philadelphia anyways.

I'm kind of wondering when Will Smith and Halle Berry are going to start doing movies again. I guess they're kind of busy with the president and first lady thing, though.

Tell me it has something to do with Philadelphia, do your American csi magic to link the 2 together by saying the car was possesed by Hitler or something and enraged by the current population of jews in Florida, ghost rided down to there and then got car jacked and was really ashamed about being used like that so Hitler felt really bad that he instantly had like a post-death apiphany and was suddenly cleared of all wrong doings and was accepted to heaven and then Samuel George Botchvaroff turns out to actually be both the cleaner and having an afair with the blonde that was found face down in a pool off the coast of miami with tire tracks down her spine so he was convicted of murder too.

I guess you could say this is what drove him to it.
