Tucson, Ariz. – The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is offering up to $2,500 for information that leads to the recovery of two 2019, black in color, Yamaha Grizzly 700cc all-terrain vehicles (ATVs). These ATVs were also equipped with extra lights, storage boxes, and were marked with numerous law enforcement decals.   
 
The ATVs were stolen from a private property commercial complex near the BLM Ironwood Forest National Monument off West Avra Valley Rd. on or about March 11, 2021.   
 
“BLM law enforcement is working with the Pima County Sheriff’s Department to actively investigate this theft,” said acting Tucson Field Manager Amelia Taylor. “Theft of government property is theft of taxpayer funds and we take that seriously.” 
 
People who have any information may call: 1-800-637-9152. All calls are confidential.
