Man Accused of Using Stolen ID to Buy SUV

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A man is accused of stealing the identity of a former boss in Wyoming to buy a vehicle in North Dakota.

Police have issued an arrest warrant for Andrew Benjamin, of Bismarck. He's accused of identity theft and property theft.

KXMB-TV reports Benjamin is accused of using the identity of his former boss for loan papers for a sport utility vehicle. Authorities say the paperwork was done through the mail, and that Benjamin has since failed to make payments on the SUV.

Police say the former boss discovered the alleged identify theft while reviewing his credit score.

Benjamin also is wanted in an unrelated theft case in Dickinson, in which he allegedly stole more than $4,000 from a fast food restaurant. An arrest warrant has been issued there.
