On February 10, 2017 at 2:32 p.m. Newark Police responded to a report of a theft at 1168 Elkton Road, Tobacco Outlet. The reporting person, who works for Allen Brothers Wholesalers, reported 
that an unknown suspect stole a box containing 30 cartons of cigarettes valued at $1,859.70 from off of the back of the truck as he was inside delivering other items, according to Newark Police Spokesman Lieutenant Fred Nelson.
