Marion sheriff seeks help in nabbing bandit who stole trailer loaded with construction tools

The Marion County Sheriff’s Office is asking for help in catching a thief who made off with a trailer filled with construction tools.

The sheriff’s office has released a surveillance video taken Monday, March 18 that shows a thief pull up to a home on NW 65th Street, back into the driveway and hook up the trailer. The video doesn’t show clear images of the bandit but sheriff’s officials are hoping someone recognizes the truck that was used in the crime.

Anyone with information about the person driving the truck or anyone who might now have the trailer is being asked to call the sheriff’s office at (352) 732-9111. Those wishing to make anonymous tips can call Crime Stoppers of Marion County at (352) 368-STOP (7867). Tips can also be submitted at www.ocalacrimestoppers.com.
