Police Searching For Grapevine Thief

(WCCO) Investigators in Carver County are looking for a grapevine thief. The sheriff's office said someone cut a fence at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum last month and cut a specific type of vine that was created and being researched by the University of Minnesota.

The sheriff's office said the suspect could be someone who was working closely with the vine because whoever stole it, seemed to know what they were after.

Investigators said foods developed at the arboretum can raise millions of dollars in royalties every year.

The sheriff's office is looking for clues from the public. If you know anything, call (952) 361-1231 or fill out the crime tip form here.
