David Bramley, 63, made multiple trips to Middlebury Run Park to transport the full structure to his property about 15 miles west in Medina County, Akron police said in a Facebook post.

The bridge was not actually in use when Bramley took it, the Akron Beacon Journal reported. It was taken down in 2003 or 2004 and just sat in a field in the park.

There were reportedly plans to use it in a project at an abused women’s shelter, but there was clearly no hurry.

Cops said Bramley took the deck boards on Nov. 3 and returned for the metal frame on Nov. 11, according to the Beacon Journal. The bridge is 58 feet long and 10 feet wide, and its sides are six feet high. Police said Bramley paid a trucking company for a crane to remove it.

Akron police posted on Facebook about the missing bridge on Dec. 10 and got several tips that led them to Bramley. They visited his property in Wadsworth on Dec. 17 and easily located the bridge, the Beacon Journal reported.

It was a bridge too far for the cops: Bramley was charged with felony theft. Read more from DailyNews
