Information:
Sheriff Dale R. Gribler reports that Mattawan police noted a pickup truck at
around 3:15 a.m. pull into a business located in the 23000 block of French
Road. Mattawan Officers investigating this noted two male subjects backed up to
metal scrap pile loading up their pickup truck with this material.
Sheriff deputies responded to the scene, as the
incident had occurred outside the Village of Mattawan’s limits to also
investigate. Investigation by both departments discovered that these two
subjects had attempted to utilize the late, dark hours to steal scrap metal from
this business. Officers were able to contact the business owner finding that he
did not know these subjects on his property, nor give them permission to take
the scrap metal.
Both subjects were arrested by officers and lodged in
the Van Buren county jail for larceny from a yard. The current rate for metal
being turned in for scrap is at around $150 a ton.
