WAGONER CO. — A Wagoner County resident has a new set of tires and wheels thanks to a Wagoner County Deputy, Coweta Police Officer and Coweta FOP.

In mid April, Wagoner County Deputy B. Sieg responded to call about a larceny from a car. When Deputy Sieg arrive he met the victim and found her 2002 PT Cruiser sitting on blocks at her home.

Deputy Sieg took the report about the wheels of the victim's car being taken, and over the next week, both Wagoner deputies and Coweta police kept an eye out for the distanct PT Crusier wheels.

After the week had gone by without any luck, authorities learned that the victim had recently moved to Coweta to take care of her father, who later passed away. They found that the victim was now having to rely on family to transport her around due to the larceny of her wheels and tires. Then, Coweta PD Officer Nick Winters called Deputy Sieg saying that the Coweta FOP was interested in buying the victim new tires and wheels for her car.
