Theft on Colfax Main Street

Colfax police seek to identify theft suspect

COLFAX- A theft of several construction items from a work trailer outside the Fonk's building on Main Street occurred yesterday morning, Wednesday, Nov. 15, at approximately 3:34 a.m.

Colfax Police Chief Bruce Blood said they are trying to identify a suspect seen on video footage near the trailer, leaving, and footage of him heading towards the getaway car in the alley near Tick Klock carrying the stolen items.

Blood said stolen items included a Rotary drip, a large laser leveler, two smaller laser levelers, a mini and small Bosch laser level, and a Bosch rotary hammer.

"We have a picture of a possible suspect, but he’s all bundled up in black," Blood said, noting that only the suspect's eyes and nose are visible.

Blood said if anyone had any information, heard anything, or saw anything suspicious during the theft between 3:30 and 4 a.m., Wednesday morning, to call in to help identify the suspect.

"We have a line on the car, and we’re getting more video from another location, so we can possibly identify the car," Blood said, noting that if anybody has any information that could help, they’d appreciate it.

The Colfax police can be contacted at (509) 397- 4616.
