ADELANTO, Calif. - It was a sod story for a Mojave Desert homeowner whose entire front yard -- grass, bushes and sprinklers -- was hauled away by a thief.

 

The homeowner telephoned deputies to report that the yard in front of his home, which is under construction, was gone, San Bernardino County sheriff's spokeswoman Staci Johnson said Tuesday.

 

Witnesses told the homeowner they saw the thief taking the sod, plants and irrigation system to a nearby residence, Johnson said.

 

David Roger Bowers, 34, was arrested and booked for investigation of grand theft and possession of stolen property, Johnson said.

 

The landscaping materials were returned to the victim.

I remember when we were kids we used to wonder around the neighbourhood at night and take patio furniture from one house and put it it someone elses further down the road or around the corner. far enough away so they didn't know where it came from but close enough to be seen by the rightful owner.
