Police say intoxicated man stole Keene utility truck


IBELLE 

KEENE — An intoxicated man stole a fire department utility truck, knocked bricks off the fire station and then abandoned the vehicle early Saturday, police said.

Police said they found Scott H. Ibelle, 28, bleeding on Cross Street after falling off a skateboard just before 2 a.m.

“He told them he took the truck,” Sgt. Steven Tenney said.

Ibelle is accused of opening the rear garage door of the Keene Fire Department on Vernon Street and driving the special operations vehicle out of the garage, striking a brick entryway and damaging the utility truck. The truck was recovered a couple blocks away on Union Street. A couple of bricks were knocked off the fire station. Ibelle, who told authorities he was homeless, is charged with burglary, conduct after an accident, driving while intoxicated subsequent offense and driving under suspension/revocation.

He was being held on $10,000 cash bail in the Cheshire County Jail until his court appearance Monday.

“The truck is back in service, so it's mostly cosmetic (damage),” Tenney said.
