A Michigan family shopping at Walmart had their Amish horse and buggy stolen from the parking lot over the weekend,
police said.
The victims exited the retail store around 5:30 p.m. Saturday, when they realized their horse and buggy were gone,
the Sturgis Department of Public Safety said.
A truck driver who was parked in the parking lot told authorities that he saw a woman steal the buggy.
He gave police a description of her.
Authorities realized they had contact with the woman earlier in the day at the Walmart, police said.
Hours later, an officer found the buggy and horse, police said.
The 31-year-old woman was found in a nearby motel and arrested.
She was booked into ther St. Joseph County Jail on suspicion of larceny and larceny of livestock.
The horse was unharmed and the buggy was returned to the family.
Authorities have not disclosed a motive for the theft.

Most or all of this drama, humiliation, wasted taxpayer money could be spared -
with even modest attempt at presenting balanced facts from the start.

I saw this on my social media feed yesterday. Wonder what for recreational pharmaceuticals were involved in this one
or, a little friendly dare?
