Memorial Plaques Stolen from Patriots Park

By Dep. Jason Ramos

The Sacramento County Sheriff's Department is seeking information regarding the person(s) responsible for the theft of several memorial wall plaques from the Wall of Honor at .

The plaques are memorial tributes to former Carmichael residents who were first
responders in law enforcement and medical professions, as well as members of the United States military and who sacrificed their lives while working in their professions.

Sometime over the past weekend, the plaques were removed. It appears that the suspect(s) responsible attempted to take other plaques from the wall, but did not complete the theft of those remaining. In addition to the dedication plaque, which measured 24” by 24” and weighed approximately 10 pounds, four individual plaques were stolen. Those measured approximately the size of a steno pad and weigh approximately 1.5 pounds each. All of the plaques are made of bronze.

Anyone having information regarding these stolen plaques, or the person(s) responsible for this incident is asked to call the Sheriff’s Department Property Crimes Bureau at (916) 874-5051.
