SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) - A Sioux City man has pleaded not guilty to allegations that he stole a skid loader in an effort to free a stolen pickup truck stuck on railroad tracks.

The Sioux City Journal reports (https://bit.ly/2kJq9pf ) that 36-year-old Nicholas Penny entered the pleas Monday to charges of theft, burglary and criminal mischief.

Police say Penny drove the stolen truck over tracks and became stuck Jan. 26. Police say Penny then walked to a nearby Bobcat dealership and stole one of the dealership’s skid loaders. Police say he damaged a fence when he drove the skid loader through it and also damaged the loader’s door.
