Jeez, no one is safe from the sticky-fingered these days, not even Garden Grove Boy Scout Troop 75.
The troop's 2005, dark-blue, enclosed 15-foot trailer, which was secured in the First Presbyterian Church parking lot with a cable through the tandem wheels and axle, has been stolen, as has the $5,000 worth of
camping equipment (20 new Coleman tents, six propane tanks, pop-up
shelters, lanterns and kitchen camping gear) that was inside.

You can't miss the trailer; check it out:
On the dark-blue background on the sides are large, red letters stating, “Troop 75.” On its back double doors, in white letters, are the names of the 110 Eagle Scouts who have emerged from Troop 75 over the past 52 years.
Garden Grove Police believe the trailer was removed from the church lot at 11832 Euclid St. in the overnight hours last Friday.
