Metro Parks Rangers Assist in Arrest of Vehicle Break-in Suspect

While on Patrol of Scioto Audubon Metro Park during Red, White and Boom operations yesterday afternoon, observant Metro Parks Rangers identified a suspect in numerous vehicle break-ins throughout the Park District who was at Red, White and Boom recreating with his family.  Rangers were notified during shift change meeting and one Ranger close to the theft cases remembered the suspect had warrants for his arrest from other agencies for theft from vehicle and receiving stolen property.  Rangers verified the warrant was still active and contacted Columbus Police for assistance.  Columbus Police were very interested in assisting, as the individual is the suspect in many of the theft from vehicle cases in their jurisdiction.  Rangers were able to point the suspect out of the crowd for CPD who took him into custody without incident.

Perhaps you shouldn't recreate in the parks you steal from... Good job Rangers!
