Eugene police have recovered a Honda Civic belonging to Duck football linebacker Brent Haberly that was stolen, completely stripped and left near the University Commons Apartments, police said.
Police recovered the green 1999 Civic on Wednesday near Building B, Eugene Police Department spokeswoman Kerry Delf said.
The door panels, lights, spoiler, seats, stereo and upholstery were stripped out, Haberly and Delf said. The thief also took his golf bag, leaving the clubs.
Haberly said he left his car at the Casanova Center while he was in Arizona playing the Wildcats.
“I got back from scoring my touchdown and noticed that my car was gone,” he said. “So it was kind of an up-and-down weekend.”
Haberly said the thieves probably used a modified master key to enter his car.
Honda Civics are the No. 3 most commonly stolen cars, with Honda Accords and Toyota Camrys the first and second, Delf said.
Last week, Haberly reported to police that credit cards stolen from the vehicle were being used for purchases, Delf said.
