Officer observed 75 Dodge Ram P/U listing backwards from the weight of a heavy load in the bed exit an industrial subdivision. A red Chevy Lumina appeared to be following it.

origination address to Vehma Corporation. Follow-up with management there revealed the materials had just been stolen from inside one of their buildings.
