TOWN OF SHARON, WI (WSAU-WAOW) – Who is stealing street signs in the Town of Sharon? That’s what Portage County Crime Stoppers wants to know.
Town workers reported five signs missing on April 10.
Those included: two stop signs, two 35 MPH speed limit signs, and one double arrow sign, said Mike Lukas, Portage County Sheriff.
“Driving up to an intersection where a stop sign is missing, it’s lucky no one ran through it and got hurt,” Lukas said.
In addition to the safety concerns, the sheriff said new signs and labor costs to install them add up to roughly $1,000.
