ELLSWORTH â An Ellsworth man learned Saturday that his alleged use of a stolen truck to get his Jeep unstuck was not a good idea.
According to Trooper Christopher Smith, Jack âJDâ Wentworth Jr., 26, crashed a Jeep Grand Cherokee in Waltham. Wentworth then allegedly broke into a garage near the accident scene and stole the truck, which he then used in an unsuccessful attempt to free the Jeep. The truck later was found on a woods road in Sullivan.
After interviewing Wentworth, the trooper arrested him on charges of burglary, unauthorized use of property and criminal mischief.
