Police Bodycam Footage Shows Corvette Factory Theft Suspect Arrest

We covered before how on March 22 eight 2025 Corvettes were stolen from Bowling Green Assembly, but now we have police bodycam footage of one suspect being arrested. Police were able to recover Corvettes taken from the factory, but it seems the other suspects have gotten away, for now.

Tow truck driver tricked into delivering a stolen car to thieves.

That bodycam footage, which was just released by Bowling Green Police Department on April 8, shows an officer chase the suspect, 21-year-old Deantae Walker as he ran away in a Lowe’s parking lot.

Walker and some other men called a car transport service to have a 2017 Corvette shipped to the Detroit area. However, when the driver showed up at the Low’s parking lot, he found the men were waiting with three brand new C8 Corvettes.

Thinking it was weird, the guy still started loading the sports cars. The men began pressuring him to work faster, and that coupled with undercarriage damage on one of the vehicles prompted the driver to reach out to police.

When officers arrived, Walker started running through the parking lot, calling out to another man in a Jeep with Ohio license plates. His friend seemed to have ditched him as Walker was chased down, handcuffed, and arrested.

Cops not only were able to recover the three stolen C8 Corvettes being loaded for transport, they found the other five the same day in two other locations. Sadly, we know those sports cars won’t be delivered to customers and might even end up as scrap, all thanks to their being stolen.

Walker’s fate remains to be seen. We hope his accomplices are also caught before they can do another auto factory heist.
