Dover man charged in Milford auto theft investigation

A 52-year-old Dover man, identified as Kenneth G. Jones, has been arrested by Milford Police as part of their investigation into reports of a stolen car.

Jones was taken into custody Aug. 5, said police spokesman Det. Dwight Young.

The case began with the theft of a 2003 Nissan Maxima from a local auto dealership, Young said. Police received information the car was in the Lincoln area, and later found it in Jones’ possession.

Jones was charged with a single count of receiving stolen property valued at more than $1,500, and then released on a $2,000 unsecured bond.
