PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – After a man suspected of selling stolen utility trailers on social media was arrested in Clark County, investigators say he may be responsible for several other missing trailers in the area.
Detectives say the man used three aliases – Joshua J. Webb, Joshua James, and WebbJJ – while stealing trailers for over a year in the Portland metro area and southwest Washington.
He is associated with addresses in Gresham and Battle Ground, Wash. and may have been seen driving two cars. The first is a “lifted white 2011 Dodge Ram full-sized pickup truck with blue lighting under the vehicle and front wheel well,” and the second is “a tan full-sized Chevy/GMC SUV, also lifted with black wheels.”
When officials searched these locations, they found stolen property from several recent theft cases. In Webb’s phone, they also found pictures and messages that indicate even more stolen trailers.
Police ask anyone who may have been in contact with Webb or purchased a trailer from him to reach out to Detective Dan Brown [email protected] and Detective Elijah Page [email protected].
