You best not mess around in Loveland! Loveland Police Department has it on lock down, not to mention their drones that track you down easily at night š¤.
Rhode Island plates. California driverās license. Boulder address. And bags loaded with stolen baked goods from a local business. A recipe for disaster.
Recently, the Loveland Police Department received a report from the owner of a local bakery regarding the theft of baked goods from a farm stand operation. The subjectās actions showed complete disregard for a local small business owner who works hard to serve our community.
To make matters worse, the subject returned for a second attempt. Fortunately, the owner was present and prevented another theft from taking place.
Once the report reached our department, officers and our crime analyst got to work using the information provided. Through strong teamwork and excellent cooperation from the victim, the subject was identified and charged accordingly. The judicial process now follows.
Great work by everyone involved, especially the victim.
Sometimes cases do not move as quickly as everyone would like, and at times, evidence gathered during an investigation cannot immediately reach the public. Protecting the integrity of a case remains critical to a successful prosecution and helps secure the best possible outcome in court.
We know some critics may question whether incidents like this deserve police attention while higher-priority calls also demand resources. We can assure you, those priorities remain our focus as well. Accountability matters at every level, especially when local businesses and community members become victims of crime.
To anyone considering committing crimes in Loveland: our officers will continue working hard to protect residents, businesses, and the people who make this community special.
Remember, farm-fresh baked goods still require payment.
