MOUNTAINBURG (KFSM) — Mountainburg police arrested a man Wednesday (Oct. 4) that allegedly fled the scene after running a stolen car off of the road, according to a department Facebook post.

Police said the vehicle was reported stolen out of Fayetteville two days earlier. The car had been painted grey to hide the original color, police said.

The driver was arrested and is facing charges of felony theft by receiving, felony possession of drug paraphernalia, criminal mischief, and driving with a suspended license, police said.
