Man accused of stealing car with child inside from Massachusetts sentenced
HARTFORD, Conn. (WTNH) — A man who stole a car with a 3-year-old inside from Massachusetts last year was sentenced this week to five years in jail. In January, Vadim Vorobyov was found guilty of first-degree reckless endangerment, risk of injury to a child, and first-degree larceny of a motor vehicle. He pleased guilty to all the charges. Child located, suspect in custody in Windsor after AMBER Alert issued in Chicopee, Mass. On Tuesday, he was sentenced to a combined eight years in jail, which will be served concurrently for a total of five. Vorobyov was arrested by East Windsor police on March 29, after he stole a 2021 Toyota Camry on Exchange Street in Chicopee that had 3-year-old Liam David Pagan inside. At a court hearing in April, police said they did not know if Vorobyov was initially aware there was a child in the vehicle. A preliminary investigation showed Vorobyov dropped Pagan off at the Rodeway Inn in East Windsor before driving to a shopping plaza on Kennedy Road where he was then taken into custody at the Dollar Tree. Massachusetts police credited license plate readers and city cameras as crucial to locating him and the boy. Pagan was not injured in the incident. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
