For him the story ended on a sour note.

This is maybe one step above the story a while back about the guy who stole several hundred pounds of scrap paper.

The amount of effort involved, compared to the payoff, is so enormous that it is barely more than vandalism. LOL.

During the worst part of the Calif drought a couple years ago the really hot stolen item was WALNUTS:

A truckload (with trailer behind) was over $1,000,000 at that time, truely crazy.

The formula was for a guy in an orange vest, yellow helmet and clipboard would climb up to the cab and simply drive away:

Looked like these men were part of the operation.

They’re pretty serious about fruit stealing (I used to live in a big fruit growing county there). Unfortunately there are other laws they couldn’t care less about.

is there some use for 800 pounds of lemons?

just curious why anyone would want 800 pounds of lemons...

(some sort of weird Obama sex ritual or drug, perhaps, or?)

This is one of the reason Lemons, and I will include other, but primarily Avocados are so damned expensive. Illegals mostly are stealing the fruit, just as in this story. The farmers have to compensate for the theft as part of the costs to grow, and to market the product, thus the prices are sky high. Been going on for a long time.

Who knew there was enough of a market for “hot” lemons that an individual would wrestle 800 pounds of them into a car?
