This person wasn't only responsible for breaking into Ironton City property.He also broke into "taxpayers" vehicles and stores. You just didn't get to read that part. I know because I was a victim of his theft.

they can catch atheif when it comes to the city of ironton property. When it comes to the tax paying citizens property, they could care less. I beileve that they are even afriad to get wet in the rain when you call them about your vehicle being broken into.
