KENTUCKY...
Kentucky State Police say one man has been charged and more arrests are expected after investigators tracked down 43 pieces of heavy equipment stolen from Kentucky, West Virginia and Ohio worth $1.3 million. KSP said in a news release that the investigation involved two separate theft rings. Police say among the vehicles recovered were semis, flatbed trailers, excavators, dump trucks, backhoes, bulldozers, wood chippers, bucket trucks and a Ditch Witch. The release says most of the equipment was found in the northeastern Kentucky counties of Carter and Lewis, and the rest in the outskirts of Portsmouth, Ohio.
Police did not disclose the name of the man arrested, who was charged with two counts of receiving stolen property.
