Another police officer located the group on Church Street, but the youth with the stick ran into the woods. Police interviewed the two remaining parties, ages 17 and 20, who said they had walked past the garage and the third party may have taken something.

Police were unable to immediately reach the garage owner to confirm if anything was missing.

The following evening, at 7:14 p.m., police located a lacrosse stick on top of a different garage at the complex. After speaking with the owner of the original garage, it was determined the lacrosse stick had been taken.
