The Broward Sheriff’s Office dispatched deputies and Oakland Park Fire Rescue personnel to a Home Depot location Friday afternoon following a reported incident in the parking lot. First responders arrived at 1701 West Oakland Park Boulevard shortly after 2:45 p.m., according to emergency dispatch records.

Upon arrival, BSO patrol units blocked access to a white work van with a deteriorated roof that was positioned in the center of a roadway within the parking lot. The vehicle’s driver-side door was found open at the time of the response.

Fire rescue personnel stationed a truck near the store’s entrance adjacent to a display of outdoor grills. Investigators are seeking information from the public regarding this matter and other related cases.

Anyone with knowledge of this incident who wishes to provide information anonymously may contact Broward County Crime Stoppers at 954-493-8477. This remains an ongoing investigation.
