As of this release, this vehicle is still considered stolen.

The second vehicle was reported stolen from the Waynesboro area of Augusta County in the early morning hours of Monday. The vehicle, a grey 2020 Volkswagen Jetta, was taken from the owner’s driveway. While deputies were on scene taking a report, the Augusta County Emergency Communications Center received a call about a vehicle on fire in the 50 block of Entry School Road, just outside of the Waynesboro city limits.
