Minn. Probationary Police Officer Arrested

ST. PAUL (WCCO) ― A Thief River Falls probationary police officer has been arrested for alleged possession and sale of stolen property.

Probationary officer Paul Kezar, 37, was taken into custody Wednesday morning. Pennington County Sheriff's deputies say the lawnmower was tracked down after a report was filed claiming it had been stolen. The lawnmower was tracked down to its current owner, who said they bought the mower from Kezar.

Invesitgators say Kezar was involved in the theft and sale of several large ticket items, including boats, trailers and all-terrain vehicles.

Kezar has worked as a probationary officer with the Thief River Falls Police Department since Jan. 5, 2009. Prior to his employment, Kezar worked in law enforcement as a sheriff's deputy in St. Croix County, Wis. and as a police officer in Stillwater.

He is currently being held in Marshall County Jail.
