FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Investigators arrested 21-year-old Joseph Sanchez when he admitted to stealing a vehicle in Lemoore. The custom truck was found partially covered by its owner with a tarp in the backyard of a home on the Santa Rosa Rancheria Reservation near Tachi Palace. Sanchez was also seen driving the vehicle on surveillance video.

The 1970 Chevy disappeared from the backyard of Jesse Kuntz last week. He built the truck piece by piece with his father, so it had a lot of sentimental value. Kuntz now has the truck back with some minor damage.
