WEST POINT, Miss. (AP) - Authorities in Clay County are looking for suspects after equipment was taken from the Yokohama Tire Company construction site last week.

Sheriff Eddie Scott tells WCBI-TV (https://bit.ly/1kHMxJu ) that the theft most likely occurred Thursday night or early Friday.

Among items taken from the East Hazelwood Road site were metal teeth from the bucket of a track hoe, kerosene and other tools.



Work on the plant began last October. It is expected to be completed in late 2015.
