                  Craven County Schools recently took possession of  this 2008 KIA Rio LX 4 door sedan (pictured above), resulting from a DWI vehicle seizure. The  original value of this vehicle (from the invoice in the car) was $15,689. The mileage when picked up  was 16,067. According to transportation director Becton Broughton, it was  driven from Linden to New Bern and performed great. He says that  the vehicle will be used as a central office staff car.
                   
 
                  In September, 2009, a vehicle seized in Iredell County  yielded the largest single payout to an LEA in the 10+ year history of the DWI  seizure program. A 2008 Jaguar was auctioned for $47,000. After deducting the  towing, storage and sales fees for Tarheel Specialties, the proceeds of $44,517 was sent to the  Iredell-Statesville Schools!
