PASO ROBLES, CA – On Thursday, January 09, 2020, just after midnight, officers from the Paso Robles Police Department contacted 41-year-old Benjamin Keeney in the Golden One Credit Union parking lot located at 128 Niblick Rd. Keeney was found to be in possession of a stolen white Kia Optima and was ultimately placed under arrest.
