A man is in jail after police say he stole a van from Saint Charles Bend, where he was being treated for a leg wound.
Police were called to the Old Mill District yesterday for a report of a bleeding man running around the area.
They say they found Christopher Ward and took him to the hospital, but he stole an electrician’s van and took off.
Police finally tracked him down after they say he tried to steal other cars and damaged a 27th Street church.
They took him back to the hospital and then to jail.
