Deputies Offer Xbox as Reward in Damaged Sign Case

Want an Xbox? Lend a helping hand to the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office, and you just might get one. Detectives say they’re offering an Xbox 360 console as a reward for information leading to the arrest of the suspects who damaged one of their mobile sign trailers.

Cherokee County sheriff’s detective say deputies were called to the Bridgemill subdivision early Saturday, and they found the badly-damaged sign in the roadway. They say the sign, which is valued at $14,000, had been toppled over, and they believe a group of juveniles may be responsible.

The signs are used throughout the county to distribute community information, and advise drivers of their speed. Authorities say it’s not likely the sign can be repaired.

The sheriff’s office is offering a unique reward in the case: an Xbox 360 console valued at $300. They say that’s what will be given to the first person who comes forward with information leading to the arrest of those responsible for damaging the trailer.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office at (770) 928-0239.
