Pine Bluff police encourage public to report tips on Johnson Metal Recycling burglary

Pine Bluff’s December crime report reveals mixed results but promising overall decline

Pine Bluff, Arkansas – The Pine Bluff Police Department is investigating a burglary at Johnson Metal Recycling, located on Sturgis Rd., which occurred on July 16, 2024. In a bold and meticulously planned heist, the perpetrators gained entry by cutting a hole through the building’s roof. The sequence of break-ins did not stop there, as the intruders further compromised the structure by cutting through the floor from the second to the first level.

The final breach occurred within the company’s safe, where the burglars successfully cut through and absconded with an undisclosed sum of money. The methodical approach taken by the burglars to navigate through multiple barriers and secure the loot indicates a high level of planning and disregard for legal boundaries.

In light of these events, the Pine Bluff Police Department is intensifying their efforts to capture those responsible. The community’s assistance is deemed crucial in this matter. Authorities are urging anyone with any information, no matter how small it may seem, to come forward. This can help in piecing together the events or identifying the perpetrators.

To provide any tips or information, individuals can contact the Pine Bluff Police Department Detective office through their tip line at 870-730-2106, directly at 870-730-2090, or the dispatch center at 870-541-5300.
