Now this? Is our kind of criminal. With no way to get to his auto-theft trial in Vallejo, tenacious Oakland resident Samuel George Botchvaroff did what comes naturally to him: he stole a car and drove it to the courthouse.

According to The Reporter, Botchvaroff "apparently stole a car in Oakland and drove it to Vallejo, where he attended court ... Meanwhile, officials were notified of the theft and tracked the car to the Vallejo courthouse, compliments of the car's LoJack device."

Once the trial was over, officers arrested him as he tried to get back in the stolen car. He was promptly booked into Solano County Jail "on suspicion of auto theft and possession of stolen property."
