TCSO asking for the community's assistance with identifying theft suspects
The Tillamook County Sheriff's Office is asking for the community's assistance with identifying suspects of a recent theft. "On April 18th, 2024, I took a theft report from the new apartments being built at 501 Garibaldi Ave, in Garibaldi.Approximately $2900 worth of tools were stolen from the construction site. Surveillance footage shows two suspects and a suspect pick-up truck," said investigating Deputy Travis Patterson. "I would welcome any tips to help apprehend the criminals and retrieve the stolen items." When thieves steal tools and equipment from hardworking individuals, it prevents the theft victims from making a living and providing for their families. Help TCSO to recovery these items and hold the criminals accountable. Please email or leave a voicemail for Deputy Patterson, if you have any information regarding this crime or the suspects involved.
