Pickup Stolen

Wilkesboro police are looking for a black 1992 Ford pickup reported stolen yesterday. Linda Woody says she stopped at the Goodwill on Highway 421 yesterday afternoon, and ran inside to get a couple of things. She left the keys in the truck, thinking because it was so old it was probably safe from being stolen. Wrong thought, it turns out, as someone hopped in and drove it off -- possibly never to be seen again. She told officers the vehicle has a number of distinguishing characteristics, including red step bars and several obvious dents. Woody says the truck is worth about 15-hundred dollars. The investigation of the case continues.
