500 dollar reward offered for information about boat theft

            Authorities are offering a 500 dollar reward for information about boat stolen from a local seafood dealer this week.

A 20 foot aluminum boat with its 90 horsepower Johnson outboard was stolen from 13 mile seafood on Monday.

It’s a specialized piece of equipment used to push a barge; it’s used during shell planting operations.

Investigators said the boat was in the water tied to a dock and they believe the thieves drove off with it and loaded it on to a trailer at a nearby ramp.

There is a 500 dollar reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the theft.

If you can help, call the sheriff’s office at 670-8500 or the State’s Attorney’s office at 653-8181.
