Three vehicle thefts reported from River Market hotels

At least three vehicles were reported stolen from hotels in Little Rock's River Market district in recent days, and a pickup was also reported missing from a nearby garage.

Two of the vehicles were reported stolen after being dropped off with valet services at the Little Rock Marriott on Statehouse Plaza over the weekend, according to police reports.

According to one report, a woman told police she handed her Nissan Pathfinder over to an unknown valet attendant Saturday night, but the valet service had no record of receiving it.

In the other reported theft at the Marriott Saturday, valet attendants told police a Honda Pilot was parked in front of the hotel while in transition to the garage with other vehicles. Attendants assumed the SUV made it to the garage, but did not specifically remember driving it there, and could not find it when the customer returned, according to the police report.

Another report states a guest at the Homewood Suites on River Market Avenue discovered several items missing from his family's room, including his keys. When police checked the parking garage, they found the guest's Buick Enclave was gone.

Several blocks away, a red and black Chevy pickup truck was reported missing Monday from a parking deck at 401 Main St.

Little Rock police spokesman Ernest Hilgeman said no other information was available about the thefts, including whether police are investigating them as related incidents.
