They stole our Kawasaki mule and a brand new air compressor from our farm in Bryceland. They were seen heading north on Hwy. 9 going towards Arcadia shortly after 3pm. Two white males, one wearing a white cap, the other looks like he has on a green shirt. The truck has a distinctive front end with different colored headlight glass. Y’all need to check your deer cameras. Please share this post and catch these criminals!!”
