Woman Steals Music Gear and Tries to Sell It at Grand Junction Pawn Shop

A woman stole music gear from a vehicle then took the items to a Grand Junction Pawn shop attempting to sell them. Now police are trying to identify who she is.

According to Crime Stoppers of Mesa County, sometime between 10 p.m. Tuesday, June 5 and 9 a.m. Wednesday, June 6 one or more people broke into a vehicle parked in the 1600 block of North Avenue and stole a wood finish Yamaha APX500 guitar in a black case and a Boss KTN-MINI amplifier.
