Expensive power saw stolen

Print

Deputy Savannah Williams was dispatched to Rimrock Chainsaw at 1292 Hwy. 264 in reference to a larceny.

Ashiihashkii Clasuschee said a customer called him about a cut-off saw and he told the caller he had the saw in stock.  But when he tried to find the saw, he couldn’t.

That’s when he decided to review his security video camera footage and discovered that around 11:30 am on Oct. 17, a man ran out of Rimrock Chainsaw with the cut-off saw he was looking for.  Clasuschee said it was a blue 14” gas-powered Makita cut-off saw worth $980.

Clasuschee told Williams he had about five employees working that day and it was busy.  He believed the saw disappeared when all the employees were in the back of the store.

The man in the video had short hair, was wearing a bright yellow construction-style shirt and weighted between 250 and 275 pounds.  He guessed the man was between 5’8” to 5’10” tall.

Clasuschee asked around to see if anyone knew the man with the saw, but all he got was that the man’s name might possibly be “Ron.”

The cut-off saw was entered into NCIC by Metro Dispatch.
