“Unfortunately, the owner didn’t notice the stolen pigs right away,” PC Jamie Stanley told Daily Hive in an email. “He has a large operation of 2,000 pigs so it wasn’t something one would easily notice.”
The police are asking the public to assist them with their investigation. Those with information related to the theft could be eligible for a cash reward of up to $2,000.
