Salina police followed drag marks in a gravel alley to determine from where two items were stolen. Now they need to find the person who did the dragging.

Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester reported this morning that at 9:45 a.m. Friday, officers were sent to the alley in the 300 block of Woodlawn Avenue for the report of a subject dragging items down the alley.

Two reporting witnesses observed a white male wearing a white hat, black mask, and gray hoodie, dragging a blue hydraulic jack and a red engine stand down the alley. The officers found the items abandoned in the alley.

Forrester explained that one of the officers followed the tracks in the gravel back to the location from where the items were taken. They had been stored at Mid Kansas Repair, 314 West Cloud Street, he noted.

The items, valued at $600, were returned to their owner.
