RV service shop owners are flabbergasted: Someone stole a customer’s travel trailer from their Manchester, Maine, service overflow lot. “This is the first time one of [our] customer’s vehicles has been reported stolen,” says a representative of Scott’s Recreation. The theft of the 18-foot Forest River Wolf Pup was reported October 15, taken from a lot in the 700 block of Western Avenue. Security cam footage wasn’t available, as a power outage had knocked the system off-line. If you have information that might help solve this case, contact the Kennebec County Sheriff’s Office at (207) 623-3614.

Rotter thieves in SeaTac, Washington, relieved a Washington man of his new RV conversion. “Luanne” was Alexander Parker’s pet project, converting a retired ambulance into his new adventure-mobile. Before he could head out with Luanne, Parker parked the distinctive rig at a motel in SeaTac while he flew off for a business conference. While out of the area, he got an alert that his rig was moving. Sure enough, larcenists lifted Luanne. Then Parker got alerts from his credit card companies: They’d found his cards, and started a shopping spree. Luanne was stolen October 11. On October 14, the brazen crooks used Luanne to help them heist a Honda from a Zips location on 72^nd at around 9:00 p.m. in nearby Tacoma, Washington. By this time, the letters LOL were spray-painted on the rig’s side. Parker is combining his search efforts with the owner of the Honda. Additionally, a gofundme page has been set up. Know something?

When thieves prowled a Prowler travel trailer in Willis, Texas, they probably got more than they bargained for. Grandma is along for the ride. However, since Grandma died in 2016, it’s only her ashes that were inside the rig when it was stolen on September 15. The family that owns the rig lived in the RV, and was away for a couple of days when the trailer suffered an electrical problem. When they came back to the lot where the rig had been parked, no RV. Someone reported two goons came by with a truck and told them the owner wanted the RV moved, and then did so. The family is heartbroken, and the granddaughter wants Grandma’s ashes back more than anything else.

Crooks working in Eagle Mountain, Utah, were staying cool on August 23. Using a 2007-or-so model year Ford crew cab pickup, a man and a woman stopped at a Holiday Oil gas station near Sunset Storage. A woman passenger walked in and picked up some refreshments. She was kind enough to give her image to the store security camera. After the casual stop, the pickup then drove on into Sunset Storage, backed up to a Micro Lite travel trailer, hitched up, and casually drove off.

Crooked RV cat-thief is out of business. A Weld County, Colorado, deputy eyeballed a “suspicious” car—a Nissan Altima—in a motel parking lot.

Bill and Debbie may be “newlyweds,” married 11 years. They were thrilled when they found the “perfect” RV for themselves and their two “Doxies.” Their very first purchase, a 2018 Forest River Wildwood Xlite, bought at the end of August, vanished October 3. Some nasty person or persons took their rig from the Sundial Mobile Home Park in Salem, Oregon. The couple hadn’t had enough time to do anything “special” about the outside of the rig.

Actually, did you see the thief who stole this RV? This Wildwood travel trailer had a wild time in Puyallup, Washington, last week. The owner spotted someone driving a dark pickup truck stealing his travel trailer. It wasn’t a midnight theft – the bold crook tried taking the rig away at 12:30 in the afternoon on September 4. The bad guy didn’t waste any time: He took out a portion of the carport the trailer was parked under, blasted through a red light, and smashed into another vehicle. Two people from the “collateral damage” unit had to be pried loose from the wreck and sent to the hospital. Meanwhile, the driver and a passenger in the truck used for the theft vamoosed from the scene. The truck’s passenger later gimped his way back to the scene and he, too, was hospitalized. He’s apparently not proving to be of much help in making an ID of the truck’s driver. Maybe the truck was stolen, too, as it had no license plates and the ignition “was damaged” according to police. The whole thing transpired near the 12300 block of Canyon Road East. Police would love to have any information you might have to help identify the driver of the not-so-getaway vehicle. Call Crime Stoppers at 800-222-TIPS. Posted September 12, 2021

Stolen from a dealer lot in Vancouver, Washington, August 17. This 2005 Chinook Eagle LT Class B rig had Washington plate ABA4633 when it vanished at 4:30 in the morning from Vancouver Ford.

Last week we crowed about no reports of stolen RVs. Now the crooks have to make up for it with a real dirty. Friday, March 12, in Denver, Colorado, an older man was seen running down the street.

We’ve contacted county and city Sheriffs, TXDot, all the recommended tow companies working that area, etc. Anyone with a connection to the camping world in Texas, please share this post. The Texas tag number is 5ZB 615.”

We’ll let the owner of this stolen travel trailer speak his own mind about this one: “Some low life thinks it’s ok to steal someone else’s camper out of the driveway like it’s no big deal. To the thief that thinks they’ve gotten away with it, ‘KARMA IS A BITCH.’ You’ll never be able to enjoy or rest easy in this camper. You will be caught or haunted. To all my happy campers out there… Be on the look out for my EXPERIMENTAL. It was stolen from the 31st and K-15 area of South Wichita, KS. I appreciate everyone on the lookout. The camper network is strong. Love you all.” Know something? Give the Wichita Police a call at 316-268-4111, just in case the owner’s curse doesn’t work.

FOUND! Read an update in News for RVers on December 20. Here’s an older rig, stolen with a nasty backstory. An older woman with health problems out of the Sebastopol, California, bought this 28-footer earlier this year to put friends up when they come to help her with her chores. In the early morning of December 6, she noticed someone had driven up onto her property and were attempting to hitch up to the trailer. When she approached the man, he shoved her to the ground. Another person attempted to close the gate to prevent the desperado from exiting, and he simply rammed the gate. This nasty guy needs a roundup. Call the Rohnert Park, California, Highway Patrol if you know anything. (707) 588-1400.

Another RV stolen from an RV storage yard. This 2017 Jayco 34 RSBS was ripped off from a U-Haul storage center in League City, Texas. “MoneyPenney” should be easy to differentiate from other sister units. She’s got a Jayco RV club sticker on the front window side of door, and an In God We Trust sticker on the rear window. Stickers can be removed, but it’s a lot harder to fix the bent rear leveler leg, and the black water tank has a lot of spray foam coating. Check out white caulk on the front cap and side. Call the League City Police Department at (281) 332-2566.

Another “stolen from the dealership” heartbreaker. This 2017 Keystone Raptor 21ck toy hauler bearing an Indiana license plate R801AZ vanished from a Peru, Indiana, dealership.

Thieves not only cobbed the camper, they also took a 2018 golf cart parked in the rig’s “garage.” Call the Peru, Indiana, police if you have a lead. 765-473-5522.

Tim and Ana Matson had just moved into their new home November 10, and headed off to bed.

From Cape Disappointment to big disappointment. A Vancouver, Washington, family who’s been fixing up a vintage travel trailer has seen their trip plans to Cape Disappointment dashed — someone ripped off their work-in-progress. The 1972 Timberline, dual-axle travel trailer vanished in the night of Monday/Tuesday from their Vancouver Heights driveway. It should be an easy to distinguish rig: White with a thick green stripe; hitch painted in a rust-colored primer. The rear-passenger side sports a basketball-sized dent in the metal. The tail lights are square, aftermarket tail lights, with wires hanging down from them. The trim pieces on both sides near the front end are missing. And like every good “getting there” restoration project, there is black Gorilla Tape holding things together. Know something? Contact Lt. Kathy McNicholas at (360) 487-7400.

Here’s a cold-case file: Four years ago someone swiped this twin axle Travelux trailer. The theft was from Toronto, Canada, so by now this rig could be anywhere. But MAVIS is a very unusual restoration, with the inside quite a bit different than one might expect. There’s a $3,500 reward being offered by its owners. If you spot it or know anything that might help, phone the RetroRVDudes at 416-804-7049.

If it isn’t hard enough on medical frontliners fighting COVID-19, now comes another stumbling block for some in Rochester, Michigan. The Rochester Medical Group was operating a COVID test center in their parking lot. That is, until a couple of rotters in a dark-colored Ford F-150 rolled into the lot early in the morning of November 2. The truck, equipped with a sunroof, was quickly hitched up to the travel trailer the medical group used to help with their testing program. It contained 500 COVID-19 testing swabs, boxes of PPE, and propane tanks and heaters that staff members used to stay warm. Repeated requests to the medical group for a better description of the stolen RV went unanswered – but if you know anything, call either the Rochester Police Department at (248) 651-9621 or Rochester Medical Group at 248-844-6000.
