Newark Public Safety Director Fritz G. Fragé requests the public’s help in locating the below-pictured vehicle in connection with the burglary of a van that occurred on Thursday, September 29, 2022.
 
Between the hours of 6:30 a.m. and 8:55 a.m., a work van parked in the 300 block of South 9th Street was broken into. Various tools were stolen, including a turbo torch set-up with tank, Makita hammer drill, and vacuum pumps. When workers returned to the van, they observed that the right rear door window was shattered and that the doors were left open.

They seek the public’s help in locating this vehicle as part of their investigation.
