Thefts total more than $100,000

WOODSTOCK – Parts stolen from 26 Bull Valley Ford diesel trucks have a cumulative value of more than $100,000, according to the Woodstock Police Department.

Police said the 26 diesel particulate filters were likely taken overnight between Oct. 6 and Oct. 7. The dealership noticed the thefts when an employee tried to start one of the vehicles Monday morning.

"I'm not sure what they do with them," said Jack Cronan, Bull Valley Ford owner. "We think that they're after the platinum that's in them."
