A guy came to the PD today to report his Penn 130's had been stolen from his boat while docked in his marina located in town. He had been away for about one month and discovered them missing today. He was elated to learn we had them as he did not have them insured. He had photgraphs of them from when he bought them awhile ago which was incredibly helpful.
Bottom line is, they were stolen and the owner has them back on board now.
Well that's certainly great news. I've led sort of a sheltered life when it comes to pawn shops, three card monty, ladies of the evening, that sort of thing. Does finding the owner of the reels mean the person who pawned them is suspect?
