Rowan County Sheriffs deputies are watching NASCAR driver Mike Harmon closely, after recovering two cars and five trucks from his two garages Tuesday afternoon. Deputies say Harmon stole the cars from racer Jennifer Jo Cobb at the end of last year. The vehicles were seized from Harmons shop in Mooresville, and from a storage facility in Catawba County, officials told WBTV. Harmon was arrested two weeks ago in a separate incident, also involving Cobb. Authorities say Harmon broke into Cobbs Mooresville headquarters, and stole her hauler to transport cars and trucks. WBTV spoke with Harmon just moments after he posted bail on the initial charge. ‘Ive never stolen as much as a piece of bubble gum. To be arrested for a felony is ridiculous’ Harmon said. Last week, a judge ordered Harmon to stay away from Cobb, though the two both say they plan to finish this years racing season. As of Tuesday night, Harmon had not been charged for the seven vehicles, and Cobbs hauler was still missing.( WBTV )
