Jan 16, 2023, 4:42 PM

As we broadcast live from the National Western Stock Show all 16 days, we get pretty close to the people who make the Stock Show great. So when something like this happens, we get a little angry, but also want to help!

The Denver Police Department needs help finding a motor theft suspect, who stole a truck and trailer that had show pigs that were set to compete in the National Western Stock Show.

The theft occurred in the 5900 black of North Tower Road sometime between 8 PM on Friday and 8:30 PM on Saturday. The suspect(s) reportedly stole the victim’s white and tan 2000 F-350, which was hitched to an Exiss trailer. According to the release, the vehicles were worth around $45,000, not including the value of the pigs, which were reportedly inside the trailer at the time.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-786. A $2,000 reward is available for anyone with information leading to an arrest.
