TipLine offering reward for tractor, trailer damage

Crittenden County TipLine is offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to the prosecution of the person or persons who stole a tractor radiator and damaged a John Deere and box trailer near Dam 50 earlier this week.

The incident happened Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning off Ky. 387. Burglars stole a radiator from a 4400 John Deere tractor and badly damaged the rig in the process. They also busted into a box trailer owned by T&T Concrete. The tractor belongs to Ronnie and Dennis Thomas. Value of damage and stolen property was estimated at more than $2,000. 

Crittenden County Sheriff's Department is investigating the incident. Anyone with information can call 965-3000 and remain anonymous. The owner is offering half of the reward and TipLine the other half.
