PCSO is looking for two men who broke into a fenced area in Lake Wales and stole some items inside a parked semi-truck.

It happened on Friday, January 11, 2019 around 3:30 a.m. at TSI Trucking located at 2125 Highway 60 West. A minivan was seen parked on the west side of the trucking company and one of the suspects cut an area of fence to gain entry inside the property.

The man who entered the fenced in area appeared to be a white or Hispanic male in his mid-20’s to 30’s, around 6' to 6’1' tall with black hair. Surveillance video shows him wearing a white hat, light-colored jeans, a light colored long sleeved shirt, white shoes and a watch on his left wrist. He also was wearing a Bluetooth ear piece in his right ear. 



The suspect removed a Schumacher battery charger, Carquest battery tester and an electronic control module (ECM) from a parked-semi truck.
