Police are investigating the theft of multiple items from a Salina business earlier this week.
Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester reported this morning that sometime between 11 p.m. Monday and 7:30 a.m. Tuesday someone broke into Kansas Backflow Testing, 146 South Third Street. A lock was pried from the door and a light by the door was damaged, he noted. Damage for both was estimated at $50.
According to Forrester, items taken from the business include the following.
A Reddy heater valued at $50
A Lincoln Welder valued at $50
Watts TK9A hydraulic gauges valued at $4500
A Milwaukee drill and batteries valued at $200

Officers found several items hidden in a tree row north of the business and those items were returned to the business, Forrester explained. Those items included hand tools, dollies, a vacuum, weed eaters, and a wire welder, at a total value of $350, he added.
According to Forrester, video surveillance from the area is being reviewed.
