Wayne County Sheriff’s Department Investigators Shane McIlwain and Jamey Beard recovered a stolen ATV earlier this week. The initial call began when an ATV was reported stolen from a home in the Pleasant Grove Community. Investigators Beard and McIlwain responded to the scene and began the initial investigation. The four wheeler ATV was discovered hidden in a wooded arear nearby.


“This is an example of following up on information and putting in that extra effort” said Chief Deputy Mike Mozingo. Sheriff Ashley praised Investigators McIlwain and Beard by saying, “I am thankful for the work that these officers do. A great deal of an Investigators’ work is behind the scenes and often goes unnoticed.” The case remains under investigation and anyone with information related to the theft of this ATV is asked to call the Wayne County Sheriff’s Department at 735-2323 or Crime Stoppers at 735-LEAD (5323).
