Parolee Stole Armored Truck for Joyride | Newark News

A 39-year-old man with a history of legal trouble, Christopher Bruton-Frazier, is locked up after allegedly stealing an armored truck and driving it through Newark and Jersey City in the early hours of July 14th — while already on parole. Security footage shows him hanging around the facility before somehow gaining access to the massive vehicle, which he drove for nearly an hour before abandoning it nearby. Investigators tracked the truck via GPS and used facial recognition to ID him, later finding weapons and drugs at his home. Facing 14 charges, the judge called his actions a “blatant display of disregard for the law” and ruled he’s a flight risk — he’ll stay jailed until his next court date in August.
