A Coralville man is accused of driving a stolen car through Iowa City over the weekend.
Iowa City Police pulled over a 2012 Audi A6 for illegal window tint as it was travelling eastbound on Muscatine Avenue near Willow Street just before 4:30 Saturday afternoon. Police say the driver, 41-year-old Robert McGill of Holiday Road, was barred from driving. The vehicle had been reported stolen out of Janesville, Wisconsin.
McGill reportedly told police that an Illinois man had let him use the car, and that the man had purchased it for $4,700 in Springfield, Illinois.
McGill is charged with 2nd Degree Theft and Driving While Barred. If convicted on both counts, he faces a maximum of seven years in prison.
