Two women from Greensboro have been arrested after they drove through the city of Burlington in a car that had been reported stolen from a Kentucky-based owner.
Gina Marie Upton and Olivia Faith Lunceford were taken into custody last Tuesday after the stolen car turned up on one of the FLOC cameras that Burlington’s police department uses to automatically read license plates of passing vehicles.

The police department has gone on to charge both women with a felony-level charge for possession of a stolen vehicle. Meanwhile, Upton faces two additional felonies for cocaine trafficking and possession of cocaine.
Both suspects have been placed under bonds of $40,000.
