Its one biggest thefts that Lawrenceburg officers can remember. Three expensive vehicles were stolen from a local dealership, including a brand new corvette driven right off the showroom floor.

The three vehicles are worth more than $300,000. That includes a $148,000 brand new Z06 Corvette. The theft occurred Friday.

Surveillance footage showed the suspects breaking into the Heritage Automotive Dealership. Authorities said the men knocked in a window in the service bay, found a crow bar, and then went into offices where they found keys and license plates.

The thieves also stole a 2024 GMC Sierra HD 2500 Denali pickup truck valued at close to $80,000. A 2022 GMC Yukon was also stolen.

The suspects were seen at a Giles County convenience store buying gas about 20 minutes later.

Police are asking anyone with information to call the Lawrenceburg Police Department at 931-762-2276.

Investigators said the theft matches similar crimes at dealerships in West Tennessee.
