Multiple boxes were stolen and a piece of equipment was damaged at a railroad work site in far northeastern Saline County earlier this month.

Saline County Sheriff Roger Soldan said this morning that sometime between 8:30 a.m. Thursday and 9:30 a.m. Tuesday, someone stole 11 boxes of Encore plugging compound, valued at $1,775, and broke a window and window frame, valued at $750, on a Pettibone machine belonging to Railroad Consultants of Murfreesboro, Tenn.

The company was working on the railroad tracks in the 4600 block of N. Amos Road.
