Construction company offers reward for return of tools

Posted: Updated:
HANCOCK COUNTY, Ohio -

Someone stole his tools now, he's offering you a trip to Vegas!

The owner of Rider and Son Construction had a 20-foot trailer stolen. It happened on Allen Township road 99 sometime Sunday or Monday of last week. The trailer was found on nearby Crystal Avenue, but the 10-thousand dollars worth of tools inside were gone.

Now, Heath Rider is offering round-trip airfare to Las Vegas, and a ticket to the I-Heart Radio Music Festival in exchange for the suspect's identity or a return of the tools themselves.

"Me and all my employees we go to work everyday, we work very hard for what we have. This not only affected my company, but everyone of those individuals had to go home for the day. We had no choice. I had to buy new tools just so they could come to work the next day. I'm hoping I have a reward large enough that people will react and turn someone in." Says Rider

If you have any information contact the Hancock County Sheriff's Office.
