ROGERSVILLE â The Hawkins County Sheriffâs Office is investigating the theft of two antique Volkswagens valued at $12,000 that were apparently taken from a residence just south of Rogersville on Nov. 27 and reported stolen on Dec. 5.
On Dec. 5, Paula Cook of Morristown told HCSO Deputy Mike Allen that she and her 91-year-old father had been previously talking to a woman about selling some old cars that were parked on her fatherâs property on Route 66-S.
The would-be buyer later drove by the property and noticed two of the vehicles, a 1960 Volkswagen Beetle valued at $4,000, and a 1979 Volkswagen Vanagon valued at $8,000, were no longer in the yard.
