♦ Rowan County Sheriff’s Office investigators joined with the Conyer’s Police Department (Georgia) and Snellville Police Department (Georgia) in an attempt to locate and arrest 2 Black male suspects alleged to be involved in a multi-state theft ring stealing agricultural equipment from businesses located in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia.
Back on November 11th in the early morning hours the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office was alerted to a larceny of a $3,200 enclosed utility trailer from Faith Farm and Equipment on West Ritchie Road in Salisbury. A white U-Haul pick-up truck slammed through the main gate at Faith Farm and Equipment, hooked up with the utility trailer, and quickly departed. Surveillance cams caught the activity.
The hunt for the white U-Haul and the stolen utility trailer in Rowan County proved a dead end.
Finally on November 18th Snellville Georgia Police officers discovered the white U-Haul pulling the stolen utility trailer and attempted a vehicle stop. Trying to elude the the police, the driver crashed the U-Haul, left it in a parking lot, and successfully fled on foot. During his flight, the driver entered a convenience store where his image was caught on camera (below).
If you have any information about the suspects you are urged to call call Detective Rodney Mahaley at 704-216-8711 or Lt. Chad Moose 704-216-8687.
