Wedding gifts/cards stolen following reception at Fillmore Turner Hall

 

Sept. 12, 2017 – Washington Co., WI – The Washington County Sheriff is investigating a theft following a wedding Saturday night at Fillmore Turner Hall.

According to the sheriff the couple from Newburg got married on Saturday, Sept. 9, and presents from the wedding were loaded into a vehicle.

It is believed someone entered the unlocked vehicle just after midnight.

The sheriff said few details are being released because this is an open investigation.

This is the second time within about a month wedding gifts were stolen from a vehicle during a reception.

Last month, August 19, in neighboring Dodge County gifts were stolen from a truck as a wedding reception wrapped up at the Mayville Golf Course.

Mayville Police are offering a $1,500 reward.

The following post is from the Mayville Police Department. REWARD INCREASED TO $1,500! We are increasing the award in the wedding card theft case to $1,500 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of a suspect in this case. If anyone has reliable information and wants to come forward, they can do so confidentially by telephone (920) 387-7904, email (rvossekuil@mayvillecity.com) or by sending a private message to the Mayville Police Department Facebook page. This is an active investigation and we are not giving up until we identify the person or persons responsible. The $1,500 was raised by family, friends and first responders throughout Dodge County.
