  Merriwether thefts continue web posted May 18, 2010 MERRIWETHER – Thefts continue in the Merriwether area with over $5,000 in money and property reported stolen since Thursday. In one theft a Springlake Court woman reported two men stealing an air compressor and then waving to her before driving away. The woman called the Sheriff’s Office reporting that a white male in his 20’s wearing a white shirt, blue jeans, and a red bandana loaded the air compressor into the trunk of a gray or silver compact car around 4:30. As the man got back into the driver’s seat he waved at the woman and drove away. A passenger was reported only as being a black male. The compressor was valued at $200. Deputies searched the area trying to locate the car but were unsuccessful. On Friday afternoon a man on the 800 block of Plantation Point, off Currytown Road, reported someone entering an unsecured garage and making off with two gas powered leaf blowers. One was described as a John Deere BH25 which was yellow and black in color. The second was a Stihl BG55 blower bearing the serial number 279575939 and was orange and white in color. The blowers were valued at $350. Saturday another theft was reported just off Currytown Road, this time on Phoenix Court. The homeowner reported that someone had entered his property and made off with a $1,500 Eagle Brand pressure washer with a Honda motor. According to reports, the man believes the theft took place between Wednesday and Friday. Also on Friday, in the very next subdivision on Currytown Road, a Whispering Woods resident called to report discovering his Toro mower and attached bag missing. It was also taken from an unsecured garage. The mower was valued at $300. A Murrah Road woman reported that their home had been burglarized after returning and noticing her change jar was missing. As she looked around she discovered her husband’s change jar was also missing. The total in change was estimated at $130. However, the woman also reported that a bank envelope containing $2,500 was taken. According to incident reports, the couple originally thought they misplaced the money. The door on the east side of the home was found to be unlocked. There were no indications of forced entry into the home. In the Bettis Academy area, a Bettis Academy Road Extension man reported an air compressor was stolen from his home on Sunday. The man told the deputy that he left his home around 5 pm for 30 minutes and when he returned the compressor was gone. It was valued at $500. © Copyright 2010
