Update on the McCain/Palin Sign Swipe

I’m home sick with a bad cold and just checked my email for the first time in a week. I had an email with a photograph included from our neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. V. who live right across the street. They are a retired couple and in their day had the best bakery in town.
Our neighbors witnessed the white male in the above red vehicle in the middle of the day stop in his car and steal our McCain/Palin sign. Mr. V. who is very tech-savvy took the photo from his living room window.
This happened last Thursday and I wrote about it here.
There’s so much of this happening now in our city that there is now a criminal investigation going on. And no one is swiping Obama signs. (not that there are that many of them)

Wow! what a great action shot. Mr. V is my hero.

Mr. V. knows much more about computers than both my husband and I do and he does his own yard work. I know he has to be in his eighties but you can't tell. Oh, yes, he gardens too. He is my hero too. And Mrs. V. is also wonderful. I love them both.

Mr. and Mrs. V. are the right kind of neighbors! Congrats on having them.

Actually, Republican officials came to pick it up this evening to take it to the police.

That is a 2004/2005 "King Ranch" branded Ford Expedition.
I need to double check on something, but it's possible that I recognize the vehicle. I've seen it (or a similar one) cruising the streets of my neighborhood. I live just outside Fairfax in Kings Park West.
I'll get back to you if I see it again and can get a plate number.

Thanks Paul for the identity of the vehicle but we live in Fort Smith, Arkansas now. We used to live in Kings Park West back in 1994-96.
