Salvation Army Truck Stolen
FARMINGTON — Police are looking for the person responsible for stealing a truck from the Farmington Salvation Army office and taking it four-wheeling.
The truck, which is used to deliver donations and food, was stolen Tuesday evening, police said. It was discovered Wednesday morning near County Road 5117, stuck on a piñon tree.
The theft of the truck is an added blow to the organization. The Farmington office already was hit by two burglaries recently.
