Thieves get away in minutes after loading leaf blowers, chainsaws into pickup truck at Bucks County lawn store
Middletown Township Police are looking for a group of thieves who, in a few quick minutes, stole a truckload of lawn equipment from a Langhorne, Pennsylvania, store last week.
Lawn Barn shared surveillance video on their Facebook and YouTube pages showing three "masked/gloved dirt bags" clad in hooded sweatshirts loading up a pickup truck with Stihl chainsaws, leaf blowers and other items.
The theft occurred around 2:44 a.m. Tuesday, June 11.
In the video, the loaded truck then speeds away from the business, on Woodbourne Road near Route 1 and SEPTA's Woodbourne Regional Rail station.
Lawn Barn has asked any residents and businesses in the area south of the Woodbourne station and north of Route 213 to , vehicle dashcams or home doorbells to see if they may have captured the truck — that could help police trace the vehicle's route and find where it ended up. The footage would likely have been filmed between 2:30 a.m. and 3 a.m. on June 11.
The truck appears to be a blue or gray Ford F-150, likely an older model between 1997-2004, Lawn Barn said.
Lawn Barn's post says there is a reward for "information leading to the arrest or wood chipping of these individuals."
