COLUMBUS, Ohio — An unmarked police vehicle was stolen while a Columbus Division of Police detective was on break Wednesday night.
Police said the Hyundai Elantra was reportedly locked and in the parking lot of a Skyline Chili in Columbus at the time it was stolen, our news partners at WBNS reported.
The preliminary investigation indicates that surveillance video showed three suspects approaching the car.
One of the suspects allegedly broke the driver-side window with what appears to be a screwdriver.

No arrests have been made at this time.
