LEWISTON – A pair of jet skis and a trailer were recovered in Jay on Monday two months after they were stolen from a home in Sabattus.
Jay police working with a detective from Lewiston tracked down the stolen watercraft and trailer Monday afternoon at a home on Walker Hill Road. The equipment was valued at more than $10,000.
In Lewiston, police Detective Lee Jones received information that the stolen items had been taken to Jay. He forwarded that tip to Jay police Sgt. Charles Keene.
