Grapes Stolen

Posted on Wednesday Sep 29 7:48:00 UTC 2010
Listed under:

Apparently a whole bunch of grapes (actually 30 tonnes,  which is a whole lot of bunches)
was stolen under the cover of darkness on sunday night.

Appartently thieves used a wine-harvesting machine to steal the grapes straight from the vines of a farmer in souther france and then transported the grapes in a truck.

The theft from the two hectares of land meant that the farmer lost an entire year's work.

the theft occurred in an area of Villeneuve-les-Beziers

ouch! We feel your pain !
