On Oct. 3, deputies with the Barton County Sheriff’s Office responded to a reported theft in the 2300 block of Railroad Avenue just south the city of Great Bend.
The person reporting the theft advised law enforcement that a 2018 Jayco Jayflight bumper-pull camper had been stolen sometime the night before. The estimated value of the camper was $20,500.
On Nov. 22, detectives obtained a search warrant to retrieve the camper. Detectives went to a location in Hutchinson where they located the camper and it was seized. Deputies transported it back to Barton County.
This investigation is continuing, and additional search warrants and arrest warrants are expected in the near future. The Barton County Sheriff’s Office was assisted by the Reno County Sheriff’s Office.
