FBCSO arrests alleged tractor thief – again

Posted

Nelsin White, 33, who was arrested by the Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office Dec. 17 for stealing a tractor and has been arrested again after FBCSO’s Auto Theft Division found him to be associated with a group responsible for a Feb. 24 tractor theft which led to two other people being arrested at a Shell station in Rosenberg.

“I want to stress that you can’t commit these kinds of crimes in Fort Bend County and expect to get away with it,” said Fort Bend County Sheriff Troy Nehls.

In a press release, FBCSO officials said White was implied in the investigation into the Feb. 24 tractor theft which eventually led to his arrest. White is currently in jail in Fort Bend County with a $100,000 bond and has been charged with theft.

White is wanted in Jackson County for theft.

FBCSO recommends that farmers and other area residents with heavy equipment take extra precautions to ensure their machinery is safe.
