Thursday night, the first car was stolen at Dominos in Porsgrunn. Just over half an hour later, the police were notified that the car had driven onto the E18 outside Kragerø.
– Here the thief stole a new car from someone who tried to help him, the operations center reports.
The car owner, a man in his 80s, was slightly injured when he managed to get out of the car at speed.
The car was found again at the roadside further south, and a little later the suspect was arrested near Sannidal church.
The Southeast police district was notified of the case at 20.51 on Thursday night.
