A man has been arrested on suspicion of stealing a Mercedes-Benz sedan and driving it for a month, police said Monday.
According to Incheon Jungbu Police Station, the man, surnamed Jin, 25, took the 100 million won car from a long-term parking lot near Incheon International Airport Oct. 21. Jin, who does not have a driver’s license, then drove the luxury vehicle for a month.
He told police that he found the door unlocked and the key in the trunk. Jin allegedly said he stole the car because he wanted to drive an expensive luxury sedan.
Police had been looking for the car since its owner reported it stolen.
They found the vehicle in Daebang-dong, southern Seoul.
