EARLIER (as published in today's Loddon Herald)
THE alleged theft of power tools worth more than $40,000 overnight Monday is being investigated by police.
The tools were reported taken from a truck owned by AgriFab’s Tim Heather, parked in a locked shed near Tarnagulla.
The young businessman was devastated that equipment and tools used to repair farm machinery across the Loddon had been stolen.
“I knocked off about 7.30 Monday night and locked the truck away. I was about to head off to a job 12 hours later on Tuesday morning and checked I had all the gear needed, only to discover the truck had been stripped,” he said.
He has reported the incident to police.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Tarnagulla police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000
