Authorities in a central Florida county are looking for a thief who stole more than 400 newly-planted orange trees from a grove.
Orlando television station WFTV reported Monday that Polk County Sheriff’s Office deputies were investigating the disappearance of the trees from a grove in Frostproof, Florida sometime last week.
The trees were valued at $3,000.
The trees were planted to replace others that had died.
