Winter Beach woman helped steal dad’s TV for drugs never delivered

WINTER BEACH — A Winter Beach woman has been arrested for helping another person steal her father’s $1,000 television for drugs she said she never received.

The Indian River County Sheriff’s Office arrested Rachel Crane, 26, of the 2700 block of 69th Terrace, on Sept. 2, on a charge of grand theft. According to authorities, Crane woke her father and told him someone had stolen his 47-inch flat screen TV during the night. However, after investigating the incident, the Sheriff’s Office determined that Crane arranged to sell the TV to another person, who then pawned it in Ft. Pierce.

Crane told investigators that she participated in the theft in exchange for roxycodone pills, but she never received them, the arrest report states.

Crane is being held at the county jail in lieu of $5,000 bail.
