By Audrey Posten, North Iowa Times Editor
The Clayton County Sheriff’s Office, in cooperation with the Mar-Mac Police Department, continues to investigate a report of stolen firearms from the Mar-Mac Police Department in February.
According to a statement from the sheriff’s office in March, the investigation began with a request from Mar-Mac Police Chief Jason Bogdonovich following the discovery of missing items.
Between Feb. 8 and Feb. 17, an undisclosed number of firearms were reportedly stolen from the Marquette city garage, which is attached to the police department, while renovations were being made to the police department.
In a statement released to the North Iowa Times last week, the sheriff’s office said it has interviewed several members of various city departments who have access to the area from which the firearms were reportedly stolen.
“The Clayton County Sheriff’s Office enlisted the assistance of the Fayette County Sheriff’s Office voice stress analysis examiner during the interviews,” the statement continued. “This information is being used to assist in the development of a suspect in the theft.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Clayton County Sheriff’s Office at (563) 245-2422 or the TIP Line at (563) 245-1234.
