Law Enforcement received a suspicious "character on the hoof" call at 9 am today.
The call was responded to when received by an employee from AAC Feed Mill, Stewartville, MN
Although the horse burglar was disguised in a new mask, officers immediately knew this was their suspect from the Shades of Oak robbery held in Spring Valley, MN by the cash stashed all over his body.
When feed mill Manager was interviewed we asked what made them suspicious to make the call to police?
The manager Mr. Grainbin stated they had the feed mill listed for sale for quite some time and several previous offers had been made by on the hoof prospective buyers and the asking price is 3,000,000.00 USD. When the suspect offered 5,000,000.00 with made in China money we became suspicious.
The exchange rate we could have gotten for the 5,000,000.00 of made in China money would have been around in 31,000,000.00 USD, it just did not add up. One could buy a lot more than one feed mill for that kind of money in USD.
Another employee when interviewed, Ms. Cornshuck did say that the suspect did have yellow hair and you know what that means, wink, wink!!!
Suspect has been identified as "Perfectin Gold Stryke", The name says it all in that he would be led to a life of crime in pursuit of money, any kind of money!
Although the Woodpile Gang is still deep rooted in mourning over the loss of partner and friend Stix . Baby Boy Pine did state that they just don't grow hard woods like Stix any more and he was green treated so it was one of those relationships that lasts forever.
