A bumper worth over $3000 was stolen from Performance Auto and Truck Accessories in Rock Springs this weekend.
Business owner Kris Valdez said the fence of his property was cut at the corner of Noble Drive and Elk Street. The perpetrators cut a large hole in the fence and stole a Herd polished aluminum front bumper for a Ford Super-Duty truck. Valdez says the retail value of the bumper is about $3200.
The burglary occurred sometime between 12:30 p.m. Sunday and 9 a.m. Monday, when the crime was discovered.
Valdez is offering a $1000 reward for information leading to the arrest of those responsible for the crime. He is also willing to provide a smaller reward for information that leads to the return of the bumper.
Anyone with information can contact the Rock Springs Police Department Dispatch at 307-352-1575 or Valdez at 307-362-7154. Valdez says anyone claiming the reward can remain anonymous.
The stolen bumper is a fairly unique item and is easily recognizable. The bumper is similar to the one in the photo below.
