Man, 31, Arrested After Stolen Rolls-Royce Turns Up In Orland Park: Police

ORLAND PARK, IL — A luxury car reported stolen out of Texas turned up in the parking lot of an Orland Park restaurant Saturday, leading to an arrest, Orland Park police said Monday.

On Jan. 31, 2026, Orland Park police arrested a 31-year-old Elk Grove Village man in connection with a stolen Rolls-Royce spotted in the parking lot of Papa Joe’s.

Officers located the stolen car parked and unoccupied without license plates. A Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) check confirmed the vehicle had been reported stolen from Fort Bend County, Texas, a week earlier, on Jan. 24, 2026. Officers established surveillance while awaiting the driver’s return.

The individual later returned to the parking lot, used keys to unlock and enter the vehicle, and was taken into custody without incident. Witnesses identified the individual as the same person who had arrived in and parked the vehicle at that location earlier in the day, police said.

During the investigation, officers found the individual in possession of a stolen Illinois license plate registered to a 2006 Audi, along with hardware commonly used to affix license plates, police said. Further investigation determined the Rolls-Royce had been stolen while in transit during shipment from Texas to North Carolina.

The man, identified as Husamuldeen Abed, was charged with felony aggravated unlawful possession of a stolen motor vehicle and possession of stolen property, a misdemeanor.

Abed was transported for a first court appearance and released with a court date of Feb. 3 at the Bridgeview Courthouse.
