(KAIR)--The costly theft of numerous geese decoys is under investigation by Atchison County authorities.
Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie tells MSC News an Easton resident reported the theft of nearly 4 dozen decoys, taken from the area of River Road and Woodson Road, in rural Atchison County. "It's not a really heavily traveled area...they had their decoys out in that field, had them out there for, obviously, quite a bit of time."
The theft is believed to have occurred sometime between January 1 and January 17.
According to Laurie, no suspect information has yet been developed.
Laurie says the value of the missing decoys is estimated at around $1,600.
Anyone with information related to the theft is urged to contact the Atchison County Sheriff's Office with details.
