Arizona auto theft bill eyes felony status for joyriding
The Arizona Auto-Theft Investigation Association pushes House Bill 2129 to make auto theft a felony and to expand penalties. The measure would shift cases from city courts to justice and then superior courts, with felonies carrying at least two years and misdemeanors up to one year. Scottsdale police note the goal is to curb hardened criminals using stolen cars for burglaries or transporting stolen goods.
