Don't know...
People steal odd heavy thing in the middle of the night for no reason..
Things include:
A giant steel horse out front of my high school
A lighted pizza hut sign
The mail box out front of the real estate office i work for (which was concreated in the ground)
They've stolen a number of those large blinking neon arrow signs..
Trash cans and benchs
The best, was a sign advertising a hotel here in town with a giant acorn that was in concreate and cinder blocks...
People also love to re arrange the letters on any signs they can...Including making gas signs $9.95 a gallon
