A silver Lexus stolen on West Jackson Boulevard Jan. 14 was recovered that afternoon.
The Birmingham Police Department East Precinct stopped the vehicle in East Lake on the 8300 block of 1st Avenue North.
The officers obtained information that led them to a residence on 84th Street South. Three people were brought to the police station to be interviewed, and a search warrant was conducted at the residence.
Interviews are continuing Thursday, Mountain Brook Police Chief Ted Cook said.
Hoover Police detectives were conducting interviews Thursday to look into how the West Jackson case could be connected to an attempted car theft on Cottage Lane in Hoover.
“We are not at that point where we are absolutely saying that they are, yet,” Cook said.
A Mountain Brook resident was held at gunpoint in his driveway Wednesday morning, Jan. 14.
At 6:10 a.m. on Wednesday, a resident of the 3700 block of West Jackson Blvd. walked out to his car in his driveway to find an unknown black male suspect who held a silver handgun and made him lay on the ground. The suspect then took the victim’s keys and wallet and left driving the victim’s 2004 silver Lexus.
During the incident, a small dark vehicle was parked down the street from the victim’s residence that followed the Lexus as it drove away.
