A stolen four-wheeler reported missing from Curry Ferry Road was recovered before a Holmes County deputy could even arrive to take the report, thanks to prompt coordination between the Holmes and Walton County Sheriff’s Offices.
According to a release from the Holmes County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO), investigators were notified by Walton County deputies of an abandoned four-wheeler located just across the county line. After further examination, authorities confirmed the vehicle matched the one recently reported stolen out of Holmes County.
The suspect has been identified as Christopher Allen Kirk. Investigators are currently pursuing an arrest warrant for grand theft in connection with the case.
Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Christopher Kirk is urged to contact the Holmes County Sheriff’s Office at (850) 547-3681 or reach out to the nearest law enforcement agency. Tips may be submitted anonymously.
Sheriff John Tate expressed appreciation to the Walton County Sheriff’s Office for their timely assistance and ongoing collaboration.
“The strong working relationship between our agencies continues to be a vital asset in quickly and effectively resolving cases like this one,” Tate stated.
