SHAWNEE, Kansas (KCTV) Several law enforcement agencies in Kansas and Missouri are working together to return hundreds of thousands of dollars worth in stolen property to rightful owners. Over the weekend, a tip led Lenexa police officers to a property in Shawnee where they found hundreds of stolen items.
Officers with the Shawnee Police Department assisted Lenexa police officers with searching the property near 47th St. and Woodland Dr. on Saturday. They recovered stolen items such as trailers, heavy construction equipment, ATV’s, lawn equipment, tools, and firearms. Danny Chavez with the Lenexa Police Department says stolen firearms are always a concern, but especially when it’s in bulk because they are typically used for illegal activity.
