A brazen thief cut through a lock on a steel gate at a farm equipment dealer in Wyoming, taking off with a mini track loader and an auger unit.
Advantage Farm Equipment says between 1:19 and 1:25 am, thieves broke into the Oil Heritage Line business, ground off the locks on the front gate, loaded up the two large pieces of equipment onto a trailer attached to a blue pickup which had been sitting at the side of the road and then left. The theft was captured by security cameras.
The business says a 2025 Bobcat MT100 with the serial number B52P51452 and a 2025 14 horsepower Auger drive unit with a serial number B66V00738 was stolen.
The business ask if you saw anything or if you have seen the equipment to call Lambton OPP with the information.
