A crane operator helps Beloit police nab a retail theft suspect.
Sergeant Ryan Flanagan says while officers were searching for the suspect just after 10:30 (Thursday) morning in the area of Milwaukee Road they were contacted by a crane operator who had quite the view.
Flanagan says the suspect was in a heavily wooded area and officers may not have found him if it wasn’t for the crane operator.
Flanagan says officers were also able to recover some of the stolen property.
