On Wednesday, May 3, a Nayatt Road resident called police to report stolen bags of dirt. The resident said she had placed eight bags of Scott’s topsoil on the edge of her property and the bags later disappeared. Police advised the resident that it might not be a good idea to place the bags so close to the roadside, as some people may think that they have been put out for the trash. The eight bags were valued at a total of $23.92.
