McCreary Sheriff Randy Waters reported on November 22, 2020 he and Deputy Greg Chaney recovered a stolen tractor from a chicken farm off Bethel Road in Pine Knot Sunday morning. About an hour earlier it appeared the thief had driven the tractor, with two flat front tires, to a residence on Kidd School Road, near Bethel Road. When the suspect tried to hide the tractor in the woods the front of the tractor fell through the top of a septic tank.
The McCreary County Sheriff’s office is in charge of the investigation.
