Clarksville Police Department
Clarksville, TN – The Clarksville Police Department reports that two thieves recently lost a truck while trying to steal a trailer in South Clarksville. On Thursday morning, June 21st, 2018, two people in a black 1995 GMC Sonoma attempted to steal a two-axle trailer from a residence on Cherokee Trail about 7:45am.
A security camera recorded the theft and the white male passenger who connected the trailer to the truck; the driver did not get out of the vehicle.
The security system, which also has audio recording, picked up the sound of the truck and trailer crashing soon after rounding the corner, possibly because the heavy trailer pulled the bumper off the truck.
Both truck and trailer were soon recovered in an adjacent wooded area where they had come to rest after leaving the roadway. The exact owner of the pickup truck has yet to be determined.
Anyone with information about the ‘Truckless Twosome’ is asked to contact Detective Josh Jobe at 931.648.0656, extension 5296.
If the suspects wish to turn themselves in, they may do so at any Clarksville Police Department office. CPD Patrol officers are also available to assist if the suspects now need transportation.
