James Harley says his mobile home on Georgetown Road was stolen in December. He's still hoping police can make an arrest and find his property.



It's an unusual case. Harley purchased the mobile home 6 years ago from the owner of a bait shop next door. He owned the trailer, but the land where it sat still belonged to the owner of the bait shop.



Last fall, the owner told Harley to move his mobile home out. She had plans to build a huge three stall garage on that site. Harley had trouble arranging for the move. In fact, he moved into a temporary home while making the arrangements to move his trailer.



However, one day in December the mobile home was suddenly gone.



Polk Borough Police are treating the case as a theft. Chief Ed Sharp says he interviewed neighbors who said an unknown crew spent three days preparing for the removal. He says a PennDOT permit is required for such a move but one was not obtained.



The new garage has been built where Harley's home once stood. Chief Sharp says when he interviewed the bait shop owner, she told him she has no idea who hauled that home away.

Harley is heartbroken.
