Thieves are stealing wood from barns in Warren County.Warren County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Stephen Harmon says the thieves are taking advantage of the demand for reclaimed and weathered wood. “We’ve had three calls in the last 60 days from farmers who noticed barn wood that’s been stolen from their barns in rural parts of the county. The barn wood is very expensive and that’s what’s drawing them. A lot of home décor items are made from this wood,” said Harmon.
Harmon says the wood has been stolen from barns in rural areas of the county. So far, no arrests have been made.
