Las Vegas Non-Profit Needs Your Help Finding Stolen Truck
A local Las Vegas non-profit needs your help locating their vehicle after it was stolen over the weekend.
An employee at the ALS Association Nevada Chapter had their truck stolen this past weekend as the organization prepared for their annual Walk to Defeat ALS event. This is no ordinary truck – it was carrying more than $15,000 worth of items! The items were going to be taken to the annual event. However, the items never made it, and the stolen truck holding the cargo has still not been found.
According to KTNV, the Executive Director of the ALS Association Nevada Chapter, Dawn Newburg, says that “the items inside the truck were sentimental and some are impossible to replace.”
The police are currently searching for the truck and the thief, but information is very limited. In the meantime, the ALS Association is asking for the public’s help in finding it. Keep your eyes peeled and your ears open… Here’s what we know so far:
The truck is a 2005 white Ford F-350 with a camper shell and two black bars on top. It also has an Arizona license plate with license plate number 9301R. If you see this truck, please do not approach it. Instead, call the police immediately.
This is a real nightmare scenario for the ALS Association Nevada Chapter. Losing more than $15,000 worth of merchandise is bad enough, but losing a vital piece of equipment like a truck can also really set them back. Let’s hope that the truck and thief are found soon so that this great organization can get back to doing what they do best: helping others.

Paws In The Park: Cute Dogs, Cats, Pony Overtake Desert Breeze Park
A few animals were able to finally find a home this past weekend, avoiding an uncertain future that many abandoned animals experience.
The community of Las Vegas came together on Saturday, Nov. 12 to help an amazing cause: Finding homes for foster animals.
Beasley Media Group hosted Paws in the Park at Desert Breeze Park. The event wrangled together the city’s rescues and shelters, allowing attendees to see animals of all kinds.
The NSPCA Adoption Center filled the space with adorable animals, who needed homes and loving families to care for them. People crowded around the adoption pens, which were buzzing with furry puppies and lovely dogs who were all eager to meet and play with people.
People cooed over the adorable animals with many families crowding around the adoption center, Throughout the day, most animals were adopted!
As people cradled their new family members, it was truly a beautiful sight to see the start of a new chapter for many.
Along with the adoption center, the event in its entirety was amazing.
We had LIVE entertainment as well. Ian Flanigan, Social Order, Bat out of Hell, Alec Benjamin and Soul of Motown performed.
The performers elevated the event and provided another level of entertainment that kept everyone from any age entertained!
Thank you to all of our sponsors who made this day possible!
- Best Mattress
- Findlay Chevrolet
- The Dollar Loan Center
- Bruster’s Ice Cream
- Dog Supplies Outlet Stores
It was a perfect day the park. We had amazing vendors such as S’Barkling Clean Pet Grooming who had splash pads and brought their mobile grooming service. Bruster’s also had a Kid Zone that was a total hit! It was simply sweet to see the kids play and toss themselves around the “ninja” obstacle course.
It was a beautiful day to celebrate our furry family members and to honor new ones who would soon call a new place “home.”
Thank you to everyone who attended! We hope to see you next year.
