From the Buffalo News:
Theft of several items from property probed
GASPORT — The Niagara County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the theft of tractor and bulldozer parts, as well as miscellaneous scrap metal, from the property of a Town of Hartland man. Tractor-trailer driver Ricky Flor, 36, of Ridge Road, told deputies that when he returned home from a week’s road trip he found his backyard wooden fence damaged and realized his tractor had been used to steal several heavy-equipment items.
The stolen goods included a 1936 TD6 International bulldozer blade, two tractor-trailer axles, a railroad jack and several scrap metal items.
Tracks from Flor’s tractor could be seen in the ground where the unknown thief had used it to haul away the items, deputies said. Flor told officers that while he was away, one of his friends said he saw a white male with a scruffy beard and wearing a flannel shirt driving his tractor westbound on Ridge Road. The friend said he thought Flor must have loaned the tractor to the man, so he took no action.
