He says he didn’t have to wait long for the phone to start to ring.
“No time at all,” says Dumaine. “I got a lot of calls, tons of calls, and they pointed me to where he was and we picked him up.”
Dumaine says he brought his tips to the police, who were able to make an arrest and recover the vehicles.
He says one of his trucks came back in good condition but the other one needs repairs to the doors -where someone tried to remove the speakers.
Dumaine says it was a lot of money, but thinks offering the reward was worth it.
