Northwest Trail Alliance Equipment Theft (RECOVERED)

UPDATE 10/30/2016 8:03 pm.
The NWTA has had their Ditch Witch & trailer returned to them.

NWTA’s Ditch Witch and trailer were stolen early Saturday morning 10.29.16.
Be on the lookout for this equipment and help spread the word.
We just used it at Ventura Park and it was headed to the Gateway Green project.
This is a major loss for our group and a set back for our trail building efforts at Gateway Green.
Please us help recover it.

If you have information, please contact the Police, Officer Michael, Police report #16- 348972

Suggestions for helping search for our missing property:
Scan sale adds, search for equipment / trailers for sale and check Craigs List. Some keywords like “Ditch Witch” , “SK755 with compactor” for example would be unique (the compactor is not a common attachment for these machines).
