MAYVILLE – For the eighth time in nine months, thieves have stolen metal from The Free Meal Center (TFMC) on Route 9 in Burleigh. The robbery happened either Sunday or Monday night, April 24-25.
According to Douglas Jewell, chairperson of TFMC’s board of directors, “This time was especially painful. The thieves made off with a 24-foot aluminum handicap ramp that was to be used as the front entrance to the soup kitchen.” The ramp, with aluminum handrails, weighed about 800 pounds, including heavy chains and padlocks which bound the two 10-foot and four-foot sections together.
TFMC asks that anyone noting suspicious activity behind the facility on either of those two nights, or a truck carrying the aluminum ramp, to contact the Middle Township Police at 609-465-8900.
For more information about TFMC, call Douglas Jewell at 609-780-7129.
