Stolen truck and roofing shingles recovered after NE Portland burglary

The Clackamas County Sheriff's Office and Portland Police on Sunday recovered a stolen truck and roofing shingles linked to a burglary from a roofing company on Northeast Columbia Boulevard.

Sheriff's office deputies met with an employee from ABC Supply, located at 1835 N.E. Columbia Blvd., about 8:15 a.m. Sunday. The employee had located a 2007 International semi-truck and trailer that had been stolen from ABC Supply.

The employee used a GPS tracker system to track and locate the vehicle, which had been moved to the Fred Meyer parking lot at 8955 S.E. 82nd Ave. But the employee also reported that roofing shingles had been stolen from the truck.

After the GPS tracking system revealed the truck had been parked in the 8200 block of S.E. Sherrett St. before being moved to the Fred Meyer, deputies went to investigate the area. They found tire tracks in the gravel that led to a home on S.E. Sherrett Street.

Deputies tracked down the homeowners, who gave consent for a search. There, they found the six pallets of roofing shingles that had been stolen from the truck.

No arrests have been made in the case, and deputies are still investigating.

Portland Police Bureau helped the sheriff's office, and worked together to load the shingles back onto the trailer.
