Stolen items outnumber reports of stolen property
The Athens Police Department has recovered several stolen items through a recent arrest, according to a news release.
APD believes the items were stolen from vehicles, sheds, garages and storage buildings on the near east side of Athens between the afternoon of Oct. 26 to the morning of Oct. 27.
The report described the near east side as “Morris to Elmwood area.”
The department detailed that they are currently holding more items than they have reports for stolen property and suspects that residents might not be aware that their property was stolen.
APD is asking east-side residents to check their vehicles and property and to contact APD Officer Nick Magruder at 740-592-3315 if they find their items missing.
Magruder declined to comment on the items.
