A Livingston County judge has sentenced a Brighton man to up to 20 years in prison for stealing the beloved cherry red Mustang of an employee of Varsity Ford in Ann Arbor from the dealership lot in August, the Daily Press & Argus reported.

Hans Adam Geise was caught in Brighton when a Brighton police officer spotted the vehicle at a car wash.

Geise showed up at the dealership a few days later and tried to apologize for the theft, the car's owner, Matt Stanford, told AnnArbor.com in September.
