Kansas City, Mo., police and firefighters responded to a vehicle fire on Cliff Drive, just west of the Kansas City Museum, on April 28.

Firefighters quickly extinguished the blaze, as well as a burning gasoline can found near the vehicle.

This is the fifth car fire along Cliff Drive in the last two months. The most recent fire before this one occurred a scant quarter mile away earlier this month where two bodies were discovered inside a burning vehicle.

A vehicle matching the description of the burned vehicle, a full-sized GM SUV (Tahoe/Suburban), was reported stolen from the East Bottoms area approximately an hour prior to the fire.
