In a happy turn of events on the stolen vehicle light bar it has been returned:

Williams writes;

My light bar was handed back to me today! Thank you Troopers for catching the thief! Also, a big thanks to the people who kept an eye out. They still have not located the chainsaw and wench that was also stolen off other vehicles. If you see anyone with a new one, report to the Troopers.

And Ann adds:

I was happy cody got his light bar back from the troopers today, and thank you island air for having cameras up so the thief, Drakkar Smith, caught stealing it and the gas from his truck along w many others. I am also appreciative of all the texts and calls from folks that helped lead to the search warrants and arrest of this guy...we do not need anyone like this on our island, and it does take everyone to step forward and report what they know or see to the authorities, regardless of them being related to you or not. One bad apple spoils the whole bunch. Time we take back our island.
