Thieves Burglars Target Fred McKown Garage Tires and Tubes

They entered through a side window with a wrecking bar, then fled with the tires and tubes possibly via truck or large machine. The nearby Summe family heard a disturbance and may have frightened off the thieves. The Warsaw sheriff investigated but found little other evidence.
