A Massachusetts man is in custody at the Rock County Jail today after allegedly kidnapping a West Springfield, Mass., car salesman during a test drive and driving the stolen vehicle more than 1,000 miles overnight before getting caught speeding early Friday morning in Rock County.
A Wisconsin State Patrol trooper, according to a lead dispatcher at the Rock County Communications Center, pulled over Aleh Kot, 32, of Massachusetts at 2:30 a.m. at Interstate 90/39 mile marker 165 just north of the Newville exit.
Kot was arrested on charges of operating a motor vehicle without owner consent, speeding and reckless driving, said a Wisconsin State Patrol spokesperson.
Kot is in custody at the Rock County Jail, according to a sheriffs office spokesperson.
He will be extradited back to Massachusetts to face charges of kidnapping, larceny of a motor vehicle and unarmed robbery, the State Patrol spokesperson said.
The charges stem from an incident Thursday night, when Kot allegedly kidnapped a Balise Honda car salesman during a test drive of a 2010 black Honda Accord.
West Springfield police said Kot refused to turn the car around and continued to drive west on the Massachusetts Pike before dropping the man off at the Stockbridge tollbooth. The salesman was not injured.

And change diapers.
There’s something fishy here-—or I am just always suspicious these days?
Springfield just plain sucks.

This is the kidnapper. Aleh Kot--was he rushing to a Jihad meeting?
He is one scary looking guy!
His eyes are way too close together, and his left one has a horrible squint, and I don't like the look in either one.
Even the criminals can’t get away from SlickWillardstan fast enough...
KRAMER: Whew! Well, I think we stopped.
RICK: You - you can probably let go of my hand now.
KRAMER: Oh, yeah. (Getting out of the car) Well, Ill think about it..
RICK: Do you have my card?
KRAMER: If Im gonna recommend this car, I need to see that itll handle my daily routine.
