Stolen vehicle used to ram into business in Edwardsville

A vehicle stolen from a business in Fairfax on Monday was used later to ram into a business in Edwardsville.

The vehicle had been inside a locked fence in Fairfax and had been driven through the gate.

It is the second such theft of a vehicle in the Fairfax area within the last month, according to the Fairfax Industrial Association. In that other incident, the vehicle also was taken from behind a locked gate and was used to drive through the gate, and ram into a business in Missouri.
