Three men accused of stealing $8,500 worth of tracks used with a bulldozer were caught in the act Jan. 13, at a West Jefferson Pike construction site, a Rutherford County sheriff’s deputy reported Thursday.
Deputy Matt Clagg was patrolling about 3 p.m. when he saw three men loading the bulldozer tracks into a truck at the construction site. Clagg talked to the three men.
Suspect Christopher Jennings told Clagg the men were scrap metal hunting when they saw the tracks and examined the property. Jennings reported the owner named “David” gave them permission both in person and by telephone to take the property.
“When I asked Mr. Jennings to get the number that he called off of his phone, he could not find it,” Clagg reported.
The deputy obtained the property owner’s number from the site and dispatchers contacted owner Wayne Shook who told the deputy no one had permission to take his property.
Clagg charged Jennings, 32, and companions Alan W. Jahns, 30, and Bobby L. Campbell, 27, all of La Vergne, with theft of property. They were booked into Rutherford County Adult Detention Center. Hearings on the charges are set April 17 in General Sessions Court. |
