(KMZA)--Pottawatomie County authorities are seeking information on a string of vehicle thefts from three Manhattan area car dealerships.
Sheriff Greg Riat said Monday that the sheriff’s office received a report of three vehicles stolen from Frieling Auto Sales. At the scene, deputies found that the business’ office also had been burglarized. Riat said 14 sets of car keys were stolen, along with a laptop computer and a Blackberry cellphone.
