Police Seek Info On Heavy Equipment Theft
March 16, 2010
Several thousand dollars worth of heavy equipment were stolen from a Flomaton business recently, and the Flomaton Police Department is asking for any information that might help them put the suspects behind bars.
The burglary occurred between 5 p.m. March 4 and 5:45 a.m. March 5 at CharCo, Inc. on Highway 31 in Flomaton, according to Flomaton Police Chief Terri Tolbert. The business reported that a 2003 Peterbuilt truck pulling a 1996 blue Fontaine lowboy trailer with a yellow John Deere wheel loader backhoe were stolen. According to police, someone had cut a chain and lock to enter a fenced area where the equipment was located.
Anyone with information on the crime is asked to contact the Flomaton Police Department at (251) 296-5811 or their local law enforcement agency.

REGARDING:
“…heavy equipment hard to hide.”
My neighbor stole a gravel truck once and tried to sell it to Sheriff Charlie Johnson. Charlie wouldn’t pay for it so he decided he could just have it.
David remembering the CJ’s sting operation
Now David, leprachauns can’t see over the steering wheel or reach the pedals.
Bill don’t know what to think, heavy equipment hard to hide.
REGARDING:
“these very well could be the groups called the travelers.”
You’re saying the gypsies did it? Well, okay, you’re saying the gypsies might have done it. I admit there’s a difference.
The danger is that when you point at one particular group without real information, you distract people from other possibilities
David suspecting leprachauns
these very well could be the groups called the travelers.
They are romanineans out of illinois.
Really bad ppl.
They always look things to take back up north and sell to get settled again.
Thier kind of a band of gypsies
I have known about them for about 20 years, but they did a piece on them
about 5 years ago on 20/20.
Hope they catch these theives soon, and can find the stolen items. yes I agree, people work hard to have what they have these days for sure, and for it to be stolen is not right
I had a Ford farm tractor (2310) stolen in Nov. from property south of Century on highway 29 in broad daylight as well. There was a witness who actually saw the tractor being pulled on a trailor heading north on 29.
Hopefully, the people responsible for the rash of heavy equipment thefts will be caught real soon. People and Business work hard for what they have to have it only snatched away by a thief.
