Clemens said police responded to the 3900 block of South Terry Avenue early Friday morning, around 5:15 a.m., for a report of an attempt to steal a car. Upon arrival to the scene, police found keys to a car on the ground. Police found the owner of the keys and they told police the keys were inside the apartment and the apartment was left unlocked.
Later on Friday, a car was found on fire near the 1600 block of South Cleveland Avenue. The same car that left the apartment complex earlier was on fire, Clemens said. At a nearby convenience store, another report came of a stolen vehicle, a Chevy Impala.
That same vehicle was seen in multiple locations in central Sioux Falls. The driver of the stolen Impala was last seen with the car running at another convenience store on South Minnesota Avenue. Nearby, a Sioux Area Metro bus was running. The driver of the stolen car then got on the bus and stole the bus.
The bus driver reported the theft immediately. Police and SAM were able to track the bus, where the suspect came to a stop near Career Avenue.
Police believe the suspect was under the influence of drugs. The suspect was taken to the hospital for evaluation and upon leaving, he attempted to flee officers.
Holland faces a long list of charges that range from fleeing from police and grand theft.
'We have a whole host of charges,' Clemens said.
