York Tire Thieves Pull Off $6,000 Heist
Call the York Police Crimestoppers at (402) 362-2999 With Any Information
Authorities say a York truck dealership has been struck again by a thief or thieves who stole expensive tires off tractor-trailers.
York Police Chief Don Klug reported that it was the second theft from Sahling Kenworth in less than two months. The most recent theft, of 12 tires from four semitrailers, was reported on Saturday morning.
Klug says the crime would have taken a considerable amount of time and likely involved more than one person.
"It appears to be happening during the night hours-late night to early morning. They go in, they are able to remove the air and remove the tires. So they have to have special heavy duty tools to remove the tires. Knowing what they do, they are doing it and it does take quite a bit of time. Again, I think somebody would have seen some activity back there and we would encourage them to call," said Klug.
Klug said he suspects the same people pulled off both heists. No arrests have been reported. The phone number for York Police Crimestoppers is (402) 362-2999
