Just before 3 a.m. Friday morning a call came into the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office from one of the residents in the Cut N Shoot Crime Watch Program. The program was born 8 days ago when residents met at the Cut N Shoot City Hall frustrated over all the burglaries and thefts in the area.

The caller told dispatchers that there was an SUV parked at the end of Crockett Trace at the intersection of Ryan Guinn Way.

Deputy Steve Degner responded and spotting the SUV with a trailer backed into the ditch decided to park and observe it for a while. It didn’t take long when a Razor 4-wheeler came out of the woods and straight for the trailer. Deputy Degner watched the driver attempt to load the 10-foot machine onto a 8-foot trailer. With the rear tires not wanting to leave the ground the driver attempted to back the trailer further into the ditch and pot 2x6 lumber under the rear tires to elevate then off the ground.

Degner saw enough, pulling up out of his hiding spot he confronted the driver who told him he just purchased it.

It was about that time that Texan Towing’’s Russell Schoonover pulled up and recognizing the Razor as being owned by a friend Glen Hoagland he called him. At first Glen, half awake told Russell his Razor was in the driveway. That changed seconds later when he looked out the door and his $17,000 Razor was gone.

Joe Dale Weems, 40, of Cleveland was arrested and for the theft of the 4-wheeler. On the way to jail Deputy Degner was notified the trailer was also stolen.
