DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — A family tells Channel 2 Action News that someone stole their prize rodeo horses, along with a high-end truck and living quarters.
Randy and Terri Roark said the theft happened Friday night in the parking lot of the Locust Grove Walmart on the 4000 block of Bill Gardner Parkway.
The Roarks are from the Chattanooga area, and came into town for a Georgia high school rodeo competition in Perry, the Southeastern Showdown.
