Carrot Caper: Police Seek Alleged Veggie Garden Thief
This guy didn't steal jewelry. He didn't steal a laptop. He didn't steal money. He took someone's veggies from their garden.
NATICK, MA—Natick police are looking for a person that images show taking vegetables from someone's home garden.
"To the individuals who find it necessary to step onto the property of another and take the product a fine individual spent hours nurturing I say: examine yourself," writes the Natick officer on Facebook. "There are several perfectly fine supermarkets within driving distance and a highly respected Farmer’s Market every Saturday. Odds are that two things are a near certainty: you’ll find what you are looking for and nobody will be snapping your picture."
Anyone who can assist with the identification of the person in the photos is asked to contact the Natick Police Department Detective Division at: 508-647-9520. You may report anonymously using the Online Reporting system found at www.natickpolice.com or by using this link: http://www.natickma.gov/201/Online-Reporting.
