This has happened on 25 seperate occasions. WHERE ARE THE POLICE? Most of them I see out my way are hangin out lookin at those $4000 we the taxpayers bought for them. Get off your butts and catch these guys before a private armed citizen shoots one of them. Then has to go to prison because you weren’t doing your jobs. God Bless that college student that took care of business in churchill.
RTD, this is like the blurb (I can hardly call it a story) about the theft from the swimming pools in northern Chesterfield yesterday.
We have churches with lawn equipment stolen. No reference to which churches, their locations, when the thefts occured (other than “since mid-March”).
Is who, what, and where no longer part of journalism school training?
Jack, you forgot to blame this on Clinton, Liberals or Democrats….you’re slipping.
I think we will see a up swing in lawn care service in your neck of the Hood—from all the newly found equipment -
Funny this has been going on since mid March and has not been reported? Did the RTD not dig up the story or is the the Chesterfield Police Dept as usual not reporting crime they can’t seem to prevent or solve.
Maybe if people had known they could have taken additional steps to protect their property.
