A police spokesman told the Connecticut Post that the owner loves to work on vintage cars and has several in his collection, but didn’t have security cameras on the large barn where he stores them. It was locked, however, and the spokesman said few people knew there were cars inside.
According to the report, the owner bought the Camaro in 2002 and the Mustang in 2010. Photos of similar cars were released by police along with the VINs of the missing vehicles.
