The anchor bar on the hitch lock had been cut and placed approximately 10 feet behind the parking space in a grassy area. After viewing the lock police were notified the store’s loss prevention team had reviewed the store’s security video and determined the theft occurred on August 8, 2021 between 05:50 and 06:04.

The driver then exited the vehicle with a motorized hand tool and cut the hitch lock off the boat trailer. The male suspect then hooked the boat trailer to his van and drove away.
