A 39-year-old Stafford man attempted to get back at his boss by stealing a vehicle while in an intoxicated state. Due to his actions, he’ll probably miss his next shift.

On August 25th at approximately 11:54 p.m. Deputy J.A. Martin responded to Auto Chiefs, located at 198 Tyler Von Way, for a stolen vehicle report. It was advised an employee, identified as Tyler Bober, just took a Cadillac that belonged to the business. It was further advised that Bober was intoxicated.

As Deputy Martin took the initial report, he broadcasted the stolen vehicle’s description to nearby units. Approximately 15 minutes later, First Sergeant N. Zotos would locate the stolen vehicle at a residence in the 1000 block of Richmond Highway. First Sergeant Zotos would make contact with the driver, identified as Bober. Bober had signs of intoxication and it was discovered his license was revoked due to a prior DUI incident. Three priors to be exact, one of which was highlighted in a release back in January of 2021.

Bober was charged with driving under the influence fourth offense within ten years, unauthorized use of a vehicle, driving while revoked, and second offense refusal. He was held at Rappahannock Regional Jail without bond.
