It was not a very nice Christmas for Habitat for Humanity Niagara as the week before the holidays their build trailer was stolen from the parking lot at the Fonthill ReStore. The trailer was purchased for the charity in 2016 through the support of the Rotary Clubs of Welland and Fonthill, which highlights the collaborative effort that goes into such charitable endeavours. Video shows the thief cutting the chain lock on the entry gates to the Fonthill ReStore and driving his black pick-up truck to the back of the store to grind off the wheel lock, hook up the trailer and drive away. Police are actively investigating the theft. The trailer was wrapped in Habitat branded images with the license plate number W26 36M. If you have any information about the stolen trailer, you are urged to contact the police at 905-735-7811.
