According to investigators, the theft occurred early Monday, January 13, at approximately 1:45 a.m. Security footage reportedly revealed Michael Hagan, 40, arriving at the Paxton station in a white 1998 Lincoln Town Car driven by Kimberly Davis, 39, of Florala, Alabama.

The pair were reportedly seen on video taking nearly $12,000 worth of firefighter equipment from an outdoor storage shed.
