SHERWOOD, MI (WTVB) – The suspect in the case of stolen ATV’s in Branch County being investigated by Michigan State Police has eluded capture for now but after yesterday, authorities believe they know the identity of the thief. Sheriff’s deputies on a routine call Wednesday in Sherwood Township came upon a dirt bike running down Arney Road. The bike fled when deputies attempted to make a stop although several witnesses in the area named the person who took off.
When the Sheriff’s Department arrived where the suspect lived, they located two stolen ATV’s. A search warrant was obtained for the residence and other stolen property was recovered along with drug paraphernalia. Reports are being prepared for review by the Branch County Proosecutor’s office.
