Timber thieves have law on their trail |
|
November 14, 2017 |
Boundary County law enforcement officers would
like to send out a stern warning to those who
are apparently visiting logging sites around
Boundary County, finding unmanned log decks and
helping themselves to the fruits of someone
else's labor.
"In the ranks of the low, whoever is doing this
is right there with the lowest," said U.S.
Forest Service Law Enforcement Officer Marc Gray
as he prepared to head to a logging site on
Trail Creek this morning. "Loggers work too hard
to have to put up with this."
Gray did not speak to the scope of the problem
nor how widespread it is, but said he and fellow
USFS enforcement officers are taking the crimes
seriously and are vigorously investigating every
report.
Anyone with information on timber thefts on the
Idaho Panhandle National Forest is encourage to
call the Idaho Panhandle National Forests
Supervisor's Office in Coeur d'Alene, (208)
765-7223, your local Ranger District or local
law enforcement. |
