Syllabus

Rental car return unauthorized use restitution. - Defendant's conviction for unauthorized use of a vehicle was supported by sufficient evidence and not against the manifest weight of the evidence when the state proved that the defendant possessed the rental vehicle more than 48 hours after the rental company withdrew its consent. The trial court did not abuse its discretion in ordering the defendant to pay the outstanding rental fee bill and the cost of towing the vehicle once it was recovered.
