Accused murderer caught with severed head in back seat of a truck — and dismembered body in its bed — says he just happened to steal the wrong vehicle.
Authorities have charged a man with murder after he was found driving around Las Vegas in a stolen vehicle carrying a severed head, according to local KVVU-TV.
The suspect’s attorney, however, says that his client is nothing more than a car thief who happened upon the wrong vehicle.
Las Vegas Metropolitan Police on Dec. 23 stopped a Toyota Tundra truck after seeing that it had a suspended registration.
The driver of the vehicle was said to have initially stopped but sped away as officers tried to talk to him about the truck and pulled into a nearby parking garage.
Just minutes later, a second truck identified as a gold Chevrolet Avalanche — driven by 57-year-old Eric Holland — was seen leaving the same parking garage.
Police followed the Chevrolet to an area apartment complex, where Holland reportedly exited the vehicle and ignored police commands.
Authorities were eventually able to take Holland into custody without further incident and were ultimately able to confirm that both of the vehicles were reportedly stolen.

Sounds like a liberal to me, doesn’t matter the damage or crime….it’s always someone else’s fault.
What a ripoff! Next time you steal a truck make sure it has an intact body inside!
Imagine if they had stopped him for an HOV infraction…
There’s a crash test dummy joke in there somewhere.
He’s either the unluckiest car thief in the world or the dumbest murderer in the world who led the cops straight to his victim.
Once in the city I was a lil’ tipsy. My buddy wanted to go somewhere so we headed to the bank in his white import. I go to the ATM, get money and start walking back. I had my head down counting money. I get to the car,open the door and get in.
I look to my left and instead of my buddy there’s this chick sitting in the drivers seat. We were both shocked.Then I said “OH MY GOD! I GOT IN THE WRONG CAR!!!” And I put my face in my hands….
Then I said “OH MY GOD!!! I’M STILL HERE!!!” Then I got out and went to the car behind me where my buddy, who had seen the whole thing, was dying of laughter.
Steal a car to transport dead bodies? Brilliant.
Sure, the the drugs tied to my schlong aren’t mine.
Soon some bozo’s gonna claim “That’s not my tattoo.”
Fully loaded, nearly new truck for sale! Comes with air conditioning, radio, plush upholstery, four wheel drive, and a dead body! Hurry, won’t last long!
something ain’t right there.
betcha they got the first vehicle because of a plate scan and then feedback. A roving, or universal, scan. AI
So, the chopped guy was reported missing weeks before, and the chopper is driving his truck around? If they were really looking for someone, they would look for their vehicle also. And I think they have scanners. Something don’t work right, or someone ain’t doing their job.
grizzely storey. I hope he just stays in jail. forever.
“Honest, officer. I was on my way to the hospital when you pulled me over.’
