Hundreds of holiday wreaths have been stolen from a Maine farm.
Gile’s Family Farm owner Frank Boucher said Monday that someone stole a trailer containing more than 200 wreaths from behind the Alfred business sometime between 6 p.m. Friday and 7 a.m. Saturday.
The staff had wanted to unload the wreaths on Saturday, but didn’t see them when they arrived at work.
Boucher estimates the total value of the stolen items at about $5,000.
Boucher says he thinks the thieves may have been after the decorations because there were more expensive trailers nearby.
State police are investigating.

That is not very nice to stole wreathed they work so hard. Please bring it back to farm and respect .
Wow. Some folks have too much time on their hands. They need to get a real job, instead of being thieves.
The Bible says when a thief steals because he is hungry he has to pay seven fold, how much more should those pay who do it out of laziness and spite?
