Man thieving election signs

Hide your posters; hide your signs. Somebody might sneak on your property and snatch all your election signs up.

The Maggie Valley Police Department is looking for an unidentified white male who has been seen stealing elections signs from an individual’s yard.

“We haven’t got any information yet,” said Detective Archie Shuler. “We’ve not been able to identify him yet.”

Based on the picture, the police do know that the man is elderly and stole at least one sign about 7 a.m. on Oct. 18. Although other signs have been reported missing throughout town, the male was photographed stealing an “Elect Roger McElroy Mayor” sign.

Anyone with information concerning the larceny is asked to contact the Maggie Valley police.
