Lexington, KY - A bizarre story at a Lexington car dealership.

Police said David A. Silva, 36, smashed a window at Freedom Dodge but before he could get inside, a security guard stopped him. Silva apparently told the guard God wanted him to steal a Dodge Charger for the Almighty.

The security guard held Silva until police arrived and when officers questioned him, Silva initially told police his name was "Seven."

We're told Silva did a bit of damage to the dealership and is facing several charges, including criminal mischief.

    Looks like "seven" could get five to ten.
