An ATV reported stolen out of Cass County, Nebraska, was found near Shambaugh Sunday afternoon, after authorities responded to a report of teenagers riding the machine on a road, possibly endangering the lives of children playing in the area. The Page County Sheriff’s Office says when deputies arrived, they found 15-year old Dillon Davis, of Clarinda, riding an ATV from the road onto private property at 409 Cinder Avenue.

A check of the 2003 Polaris Predator’sĀ  Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) revealed the machine had been stolen. The teen’s father, Kelly Davis, arrived with paperwork showing he had legally purchased the ATV in Feb. 2013, and other documentation. All of the characters on the bill of sale matched, except the last one. The number was left off the State of Iowa Certificate supposedly issued through Pottawatttamie County.

The ATV was subsequently seized. While the case remains under investigation, authorities stress neither Kelly nor Dillon Davis are suspects at this time, as they have done everything correct in purchasing the ATV.
