Expensive Mower Stolen

A Wilkes man says someone has stolen an expensive mower from his property. Craig Sanderson tells deputies he stored his 6-thousand dollar Husqvarna zero-turn mower under the carport -- at least he did until sometime Sunday. When he got home from a day out on Sunday, he found the mower missing. There were no obvious tracks noted by officers, and he doesn't have any idea who might have taken it. Deputies are waiting on some additional information to enter the mower into the national crime database. Sanderson says it happened sometime between Sunday morning at 9:30 and Sunday evening about 5.
