Uke's Hot Dog Heaven loses picnic table, tools

LAND O'LAKES -- Someone stole a picnic table and tools from Uke's Hot Dog Heaven last weekend.

Bruce Brand, who owns the business at 4805 U.S. 41, told Pasco County Sheriff's deputies the theft happened between the afternoon of Jan. 6 and Monday morning.

Brand said when he showed up Monday at work, he noticed one of his picnic tables missing. He also noticed that someone had pried open the door to a trailer and took a variety of hand tools.

Brand valued the table at $100. He told deputies he would make a list of the tools later.

Thief takes ton of goods from food bank

LAND O'LAKES -- Talk about an appetite.

Pasco County sheriff's deputies were searching for the suspects who stole 2,000 pounds of food Wednesday night from the Pasco Food Bank at 5829 Ehren Cutoff.

Manager Theresa Tooter told deputies that the thieves stole about 75 banana boxes full of miscellaneous boxed and canned foods from one of three trailers owned by the food bank.

Deputies noticed bread crumbs on the ground in front of the trailer, which apparently fell while the thieves loaded the boxes onto a vehicle.

The stolen food was valued at $400.

Deputies have no suspects so far.
