Our HRPD Detective, in cooperation with The Dalles Police Detectives, Bend Police Department and the Deschutes County Community Corrections Department were able to apprehend and arrest a local retail theif who stole more than $9,000.00 worth of merchandise from local Hood River Businesses.
A tip obtained by The Dalles City Police was able to get the ball rolling in the case. The tip led our Detective to the suspect Jeffrey Randall Short who was eventually arrested in central Oregon. Through the investigation, our Detective was also able to seize more than $7,000.00 in cash as evidence in the case.
The HRPD would like to send a special thank you to our neighboring City agency City of The Dalles Police Department for working with us on this case as their businesses were also victims. It was greatly appreciated!!!
