On Thursday of last week, Galesburg Police responded to the 100 block of Allens Avenue after a 54-year-old man reported his rear license plate was stolen. The man told police his car was parked and slept inside it that night. The man gave police the name of a 44-year-old Galesburg man as a possible suspect.
Galesburg Police on Friday spoke with a 56-year-old Galesburg woman who reported a pair of truck plates being stolen. The woman’s 2008 Chevrolet Silverado had been parked in the 1200 block of East Main Street and sometime between the past three weeks, the plates were taken out of the truck’s bed.
Later on Friday morning, Galesburg Police responded to the 400 block of East Main for a theft. A 32-year-old Aledo woman realized her front license plate was missing. Also missing were both screws for the plate – leading police to believe it was stolen.
Galesburg Police are also investigating after a 26-year-old woman reported both passenger side tires of her car were stolen in the 200 block of George Avenue on Thursday. Someone attempted to gain access to a Nissan at the same address. All four windows had been forcibly pushed down – and scuff marks were observed near a door. All the incidents remain under investigation.
