On Monday, the Haywood County Sheriff’s Office made a breakthrough in the case of the stolen trailer belonging to the Asheville Humane Society. The suspect, Joshua Allen Forrest, 25, was apprehended, and the trailer was successfully recovered.
Joshua Allen Forrest was arrested without incident and charged with two counts of felony larceny. He was booked into the Haywood County Detention Facility under a $10,000 bond. Despite his arrest, Forrest has since been released pending further legal proceedings.
The criminal act took place at the Asheville Humane Society location off Brevard Road over a week ago. Surveillance footage captured the suspect hitching the trailer. Although the trailer has been recovered, the contents inside, valued at thousands of dollars, remain missing.
The missing items were essential supplies meant to assist community members in caring for their animals. The theft has caused significant hardship for those in need. Donations are crucial to support the ongoing welfare efforts.
Despite the setback, gratitude was expressed for the outpouring of support from the community. Generous donations have been pouring in to help replenish the stolen supplies and aid in the organization’s ongoing mission.
“It’s just so relieving to know that our community really showed up for us,” acknowledging the solidarity and compassion exhibited by local residents.
To assist the Asheville Humane Society in recovering from the theft and continuing their vital work, donations can be made directly to the organization. By contributing to the cause, individuals can make a meaningful impact on the lives of animals and their caretakers in need.
As the investigation unfolds and legal proceedings progress, the Asheville Humane Society remains steadfast in its commitment to serving the community and providing essential support to those in need. The recovery of the stolen trailer marks a significant step towards closure and reaffirms the resilience and unity of the local community.
