A boy scout troop in Benbrook had to scramble together camping gear and other materials for a weekend excursion after their troop trailer was stolen, according to scout leaders.
Members of Boy Scout Troop 519 have spent weeks fixing up a trailer that was donated to them by another local troop, so they could use it for storing their gear.
The trailer was packed and ready to go for a trip to Waco this weekend, but when the scouts arrived early Friday morning to load up and head out, the trailer was gone.
The trailer was locked up at a Benbrook storage facility. It was last seen on Tuesday, Feb. 7.
Benbrook police are investigating the incident. Police said it was likely stolen during the overnight hours between Feb. 7 and Feb. 10.
