☆ Newspapers Stolen After Reporting on Rape Investigation at Police Chief’s Home
  + stars: | 2024-01-21 | by ( Amanda Holpuch | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
A Colorado man was cited after more than 200 newspapers were stolen from distribution boxes, stopping people from buying The Ouray County Plaindealer the day it published a front-page story about an investigation into sexual assault at the home of the Ouray city police chief. The Plaindealer said in a note to readers on Thursday that all of the newspaper’s boxes in the city of Ouray and all but one in the town of Ridgway had been emptied after the weekly newspaper’s latest edition had been distributed. “Whoever did this does not understand that stealing newspapers doesn’t stop a story,” the note said. The Plaindealer has been operating since 1877 and reports on news in mountainous Ouray County, which is about 165 miles southwest of Colorado Springs, and has just over 5,000 residents.

☆ Small-Town Colorado Newspapers Stolen After Running Story About Rape Charges at Police Chief's House

The Ouray County Plaindealer is published on Thursdays and delivered to racks late Wednesday. The rack price for the weekly newspaper is $1, so someone spent $12 opening racks and removing all the newspapers, Wiggins said. They missed one newspaper rack at a coffee shop, so about 200 papers were stolen. He believed the person who returned the newspapers was the person who took them and that only one person was involved in the theft. Someone taped over the coin slot on the newspaper rack at the campground and covered the plexiglass window with a sign asking them to remove the rack, he said.
