78 Year Old Carpenter Unable To Work Following Burglary Of All Of His Tools

The Fremont Police Association takes great pride in our Fremont community, not just in our daily duties, but also in providing opportunities and support to those in need. The Fremont Police Association sponsors several community events yearly, has a college scholarship program, and donates to community programs and members in need.

A Fremont Police Association member investigated an automotive burglary in the City of Fremont. Our member learned during the investigation that Mr. Ray, the victim, is a 78-year-old working carpenter. On the morning of July 15, 2023, Mr. Ray looked forward to finishing work and fine detailing on his latest project, a beautiful mantle. Unfortunately, on this day, he discovered that his work truck had sustained thousands of dollars in damages, which resulted in the theft of his tools. As a result of this crime, Mr. Ray cannot work to support his family. Mr. Ray explained to our member that his priority is to provide care and financial support for his wife, who has recently been hospitalized for multiple strokes. His loss from this auto burglary is detrimental to his household, and he needs assistance.

The Fremont Police Association is asking for your help to restore Mr. Ray's vehicle to working order and replace his stolen tools so that he can work and support his wife. We aim to reach a goal of $10,000, which will cover repair and replacement costs. We hope you consider a donation to support Mr. Ray. We appreciate your consideration.
