Stolen Car Recovered, Victim Still Sore From Attack

We first brought you Jason Anderson's story last night at ten. The south Jackson man had his car stolen after being attacked in his home Thursday evening.

Now his car is back in his possession, after good community policing by a nearby resident.

Jason Anderson was reunited with his stolen Monte Carlo S.S., around noon Friday. The car spotted by a concerned citizen, who called police, who called him.

Jason Anderson says, "I'm not worried about my car, the boys who did this they came in my house they violated me they tied me up they beat me up stole my cash stole my car."

A stereo, amplifier, and speaker were ripped out of the car, but as if to spite him, Anderson's car club was locked back on the steering wheel.

He's still sore from his injuries but Jason Anderson says if he had a chance, he wouldn't mind some time alone with his attackers.

Jason Anderson says, "just give me ten minutes with them with a shotgun I'll take care of both of em'."

The abandoned house where the car was dumped, a magnet for crime according to neighbors. We found out why, inside the back door that had been kicked in, we found several rooms with used condoms and even spent shell casings.

Jackson police plan to dust Anderson's car for fingerprints in hopes of identifying whoever stole it.

Jason Anderson says, "I'm just relieved to have this back and like I said we need to catch who did this."

Jason Anderson describes his attackers as two black males with slender builds. Both were about five feet six inches tall.

One of the men was named Tony, and had a scar on his face. The men were driving a light blue four door Chevy Lumina.
