PLEASE READ: DZ Stolen Gear Announcement

[porterhouse 0]

I contacted the sheriff's department and confirmed that this is legit. I'm hoping that if enough people read this we might be able to help out:

The Greene Co. Sport Parachute Center of Bardstown Ky. was the victim of a significant robbery during the early AM hours of Sunday December 17th.

Someone broke into the locked hanger using bolt cutters and stole the personal and drop zone property. The thieves stole skydiving rigs, cameras, radio and other items. They had to know us and have been around the parachute center and likely befriended us because they knew where things were and where to find them. It is apparent that the thief knew what he or she was after! Judging from what they took they know something about skydiving gear and know personally.

A $2,000.00 reward (and maybe more) to anyone providing information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons who committed this crime. Please we need your information, contact; The Nelson Co Sheriff’s department, Deputy Sheriff Ramond Pineiroa Jr. RPT# N0612-248. Day: (502) 348-1870, Night: (502) 348-3211, Fax: (502) 348-1874 (or) Kenn. Parachute Center: (502) 348-9531, Home: (270 865-6577



THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION and HELP!!! Pass this on- Cindy & Kenn Heismann

OK folks . . . this is a huge theft from some very friendly folks at a DZ that has been around for a long time. I have been there myself and can say that I felt right at home.

There is another sticky post in Bonfire put up by a different author. Due to the nature of the incident and the fact that the posts came from two different authors (not really a cross-post), I have stuck this one to the top of this forum as well.

Another post to this forum, and the few replies to this thread in reference to the repeated coverage of the topic in the forums, have been removed.

Let's keep the conversation in this thread limited to information that can help the good folks at Bardstown get their gear back.

Thanks!

Arrive Safely

John

Cindy and Kenn,
I'm so sorry for your loss. It sounds very similar to what happened to us at CPI this week. Let's keep each other posted if we get any leads or info. I will surely keep my eye out for your stuff.
it's so disheartening.
