Outbuilding Thefts

The Wilkes Sheriff's Office has had a number of thefts from outbuilding reports this week with various tools and other items being stolen.  In the first report, a Millers Creek property owner said that over the course of the past few weeks he had noticed several things missing from his outbuildings.  An inventory of stolen property is being done and serial numbers of stolen items are being gathered.  There are suspects in this theft and charges are pending.  Also a North Wilkesboro victim called to report a theft from his outbuilding located near his residence.  Again, it is believed the theft happened within the past few weeks.  This time only a Stihl chainsaw valued at 60 dollars was taken.
