No signs of smoke, but several fire fighters were racing to the roof of the building. Not sure of the address but it is right next to the subway and grease monkey on E Riverside. Its possibly at the vet office. Im hearing what sounds like a type of electric saw. I do see dust clouds as if they are sawing something. The building possibly caught on fire.”

Rockford Scanner™: A Grinch Strikes A Local Church, Steals Equipment



 

 

 

RS fan Michael: “Our Church trailers were broken into last night and one was actually stolen including all our neighborhood block party outreach equipment. All four trailers on our property were broken into, but unfortunately it was one of the Hey, Neighbor trailers that was taken.

It is most likely that the Hey, Neighbor decal has been stripped off the side of the black trailer, but the remnants or outline of it would probably still be visible. I have attached a picture of it for reference, but if you do see it anywhere, please call us or the non-emergency number for Rockford and make them aware of the whereabouts in the chance that we may actually get it back.

Northeast Christian Church
5651 E Riverside Blvd, Rockford, IL 61114

Thanks,
