What is this?
Sign stolen from Natchez Chamber of Commerce
Published Friday, June 13, 2008
NATCHEZ — Around lunchtime on Tuesday employees at the Natchez Chamber of Commerce were given some surprising news — their sign had been stolen.
Chamber President Debbie Hudson said she thinks the sign was stolen from the Main Street office over the weekend but was not made aware of it until Tuesday.
“I just can’t believe we didn’t notice it, but we’ve been so busy,” she said.
Hudson estimated the cost to be between $300 and $500, but said the annoyance is just as important as the money.
“We’re attempting to get it back as soon as possible because we’ve already had several people ask if we have moved,” she said.
Hudson said she thinks the sign was stolen by children pulling a prank.
“The policemen have been having a good many problems from Bowie’s to pretty much anywhere on Main Street,” she said.
According to the police report, the theft is a grand larceny.

Dog poo in a bag on someone's front porch is a "prank". Grand larceny is not.

Hey it's summer time and crap always comes up missing in the summer around here because of their "boredom"! Remember last June it was they were bored and shot out business windows and home windows and car windows.
give me a break

"The policemen have been having a good many problems from Bowie’s to pretty much anywhere on Main Street,” she said."
Now if the problem is bad as she saids it is and it sounds like it is, then why isn't the "Natchez Chamber of Commerce", doing something about it. It would seem like that would be the number one thing on their mind and the most important thing to solve.

Maybe they should pray for the sign to be returned.

Maybe they should replace it with the "Yard of the Month" sign!

This sounds like a prank that kids were doing it the 50's & 60's.
