On Friday November 9th 2012, Norman Keller reported his trailer containing over $60,000.00 in model train parts was stolen from the Motel 6 in Ogden at 1455 Washington. Keller travels across the country visiting model train shows selling parts and accessories. The trailer and its contents were Keller’s entire inventory and this theft shut his business down just before the Christmas season.
Ogden Police Department detectives set up surveillance at known suspect homes hoping for a break in the case. The detectives broke the case when they spotted some of the stolen property at one of the homes. A search warrant was served on this home located in Ogden and the majority of the 60,000.00 property was located hidden in the attic.
Detectives continued through the night eventually locating Mr. Keller’s trailer at another home in North Ogden. A suspect was caught in the act of spray painting the trailer black and removing the vehicle identificatio
n plate.
Property Detectives Connors, Eggerman, Ziegler, and Mackley tracked down the stolen property vital to Norman Keller’s business. The trailer and property were returned to Mr. Keller.
The main suspect in this investigation wasn’t home when the warrant was served and detectives are still tracking him down.
