Authorities say the mini semi was stolen from NAPA Auto Parts near the corner of 100th St. SW and 40th Ave. SW at around 11:00 a.m.

The LPD says it will also offer "bonus points" for anyone who can identify the suspect, who is presumed to be driving without a CDL (Commercial Driver's License) endorsement.

Anyone who knows the whereabouts of the mini semi-truck, or the identity of the suspect is asked to contact the Lakewood Police Department.
