Two men in Marathon, Florida stole a loaded flat bed trailer by hooking their semi truck to the trailer and driving away.
When the two men drove off with the trailer, which was parked outside Fred’s Beds in Marathon, a friend of the owner of the trailer spotted them and confronted them.
They told the man that they were hired by the owner to haul the trailer to a weight station.
Still suspicious, the man called his friend and notified him. The owner then called police and reported the trailer stolen.
The two men, Agustin Rodriguez, 37, and Dayro Alonso, 35, were located a few miles away pulling the stolen trailer. They have been arrested on charges of grand theft.
In addition, Rodriguez, who was the registered owner of the truck, had his truck seized for possible forfeiture.
