A 2018 Ford Leprechaun Model 260 valued at $118,000 was reported stolen from Nielson RV Aug. 6, Katie Leavitt, general manager of Nielson RV told St. George News on Thursday.
The motorhome was in for some general maintenance and had been parked in the business’ parking lot Aug. 4, a Saturday. The following Monday, it was missing and subsequently reported as stolen to the St. George Police Department.
A review of footage caught by security cameras showed “several suspicious vehicles in the lot,” Leavitt said, adding that there was also a suspicious-looking man moving around the parking lot near the time the motorhome was taken.
The Leprechaun was driven off the lot around 6:15 p.m. Aug. 5, Leavitt said. Around that time, the suspicious cars also left.
One of the suspect vehicles shown on the security footage was a black Chrysler 300, St. George Police officer Tiffany Atkin said.
