The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the theft of an ATV and other items from the Bristol/South Bristol Transfer Station, Lt. Michael Murphy said Feb. 8.
“We believe we will recover it [the ATV],” Murphy said. The investigation also involves some smaller items, such as tools, he said.
Murphy said LCSO expects to charge a suspect in the case this week. The suspect has been cooperating with the investigation, he said.
The investigation marks the latest news in a turbulent winter for the transfer station.
The Bristol/South Bristol Transfer Station Board of Directors suspended former station manager Shawn Dinsmore and another employee Dec. 12 as the result of an internal investigation unrelated to the theft. Dinsmore resigned Dec. 28.
