Man Arrested For Stealing Car Three Minutes After Release From Jail

<snip>

JUNEAU, Alaska -- It was only a small taste of freedom.

David Mulligan, 21, of Sitka, served 25 days in jail for drunken driving, and was released at 7 a.m. Tuesday. Authorities say he stole a van three minutes later.

Police said a man who lives a block from the Lemon Creek Correctional Center had left his 1997 Dodge van running to warm up when he went inside the house. It was gone when he came out.

Two hours later, the owner called police on a cell phone, saying he was following the van in traffic.

Police said they found Mulligan alone in the van.

He now faces up to five years in prison and a $50,000 fine if convicted of felony vehicle theft.
