The Canadian Mounties might always get their man, but the Hall County Sheriff’s Office recovered loot stolen from docks on Lake Lanier.
A post on the Hall County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO) Facebook page dated July 30, 2019 said, “Investigators have recovered a sizeable amount of stolen fishing equipment and are trying to return it to its rightful owners.”
If you have been the victim of piracy on the low seas of Lake Lanier, you might have a chance to claim your stuff and have it returned. The HCSO says, “Victims may contact Investigator Atkins to make arrangements to claim their property. This includes victims who may not have initially filed a theft report.”
Items recovered are believed to have been stolen over the summer from docks along the shoreline in Dawson, Forsyth and Hall Counties.
HCSO recovered these items on July 26, while executing a search warrant.
• 34 rods with reels
• 5 Lifejackets (in one clear case)
• 22 tackle boxes
• 1 small blue kayak

Our thanks to the Hall County Sheriff’s Office for making sure these crimes were solved.
