NASCAR driver Mike Harmon is out on bond today, May 16, after a warrant for his arrest was issued in connection with stealing Jennifer Jo Cobb's race hauler.
Cobb, who is competing in the Camping World Truck Series this year for her own racing team said to police that her hauler was stolen on May 11.
North Carolina police issued arrest warrants for Harmon and his sister Sheila Rae Rice on May 15.
The siblings were charged for breaking and entering a motor vehicle and felony larceny of the trailer according to Yahoo.
Harmon posted bond and quickly took to Twitter to defend himself later on that day.
"I want it known that I have never stolen so much as a piece of bubble gum in my life," said Harmon on Twitter. "I did not take JJC hauler, there is no video of me any where near her shop. Today she was the windshield & I was the bug, but when we get in FEDERAL court in a couple wks there's a boulder coming."
Cobb then posted on Facebook that, despite multiple reports claiming she had accused Harmon, she never told police he was the one that did it, but rather the warrant was issued because of "evidence and eye witness accounts" according to the Facebook post.
Cobb said the contents of the hauler are worth over $250,000.
"It is my sole concern to get the transporter back so that we can make Friday night's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway," Cobb said in a press statement. "We are working with other teams right now to borrow the necessary items in the event our hauler and its contents are not returned. We are pleased with the diligent work that the Rowan County Sheriff's Department has shown in solving this crime."
