Camera footage caught a van carrying the alleged band of thieves pulling into the patch three separate times at 1:30 a.m., 3 a.m. and finally at 4:55 a.m. The farm priced the nearly 200 pumpkins at $3,000.
"They're in and out of here just a few minutes. They came in with a vengeance," said Todd Kuehm, the farm's manager. "To come back three times, that was pretty brazen. ... I hope we catch them."
The Kuehm family, which has owned and operated the farm since 1894, is offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.
