Stolen vehicle recovered near Rockville

On Thursday, Sept. 5, the St. Clair County Sheriff’s office recovered a stolen vehicle from property located near SW 150 and SW230 Road near Rockville owned by Kevin Clark.

Clark stated he was hanging a deer stand on his property and noticed a white truck on the other side of the creek. A deputy arrived on scene and Clark showed where the vehicle was located. The deputy noticed several trees knocked down and the vehicle deep in the woods an estimated 100 yards from the road.  A check of the vehicle revealed the vehicle was a 2005 Ford one-ton truck with a utility bed stolen from Harrisonville in Cass County on Sept. 1. The vehicle was towed by Cross Towing with no hold. There are no suspects and the investigation is continuing.
