Arrest warrants have been issued for NASCAR driver Mike Harmon and former Jennifer Jo Cobb Racing partner David Novak as part of an investigation into the theft of a number of race vehicles owned by Cobb last month.
WBTV television in Charlotte, North Carolina is reporting this afternoon that warrants for breaking and entering and larceny after breaking and entering have been issued for both Harmon and Novak, who investigators allege stole two NASCAR Nationwide Series cars and five Camping World Truck Series entries owned by Cobb. The vehicles were recovered from Harmon’s Mooresville, NC, race shop and a storage facility in Catawba last month.
Harmon was also arrested in mid-May after an 18-wheel race transporter was stolen from Cobb’s Mooresville compound. In an off-air statement, he told Sirius XM Speedway today, “I’m innocent. I haven’t stolen anything and this is a civil matter.”
Calls placed to Cobb seeking comment were not immediately returned. Her transporter has not been recovered.
