No word on if the Crock Pot had food in it when it was stolen. This is why we need local new reporting, kids. The important information needs to be found out. "That’s a crock A slow cooker was stolen on Broadway in Redwood City, it was reported at 3:50 p.m. Saturday, June 9." That's the whole story, direct from the blotter with a cheeky headline. I think the copy writer needed to dig a little deeper to get to the meat of the story, but I'm just some guy typing in a room. Link to the Daily Journal

Montana chimes in

A man house sitting in Hamilton has been charged with a number of things after the fact. "According to court documents, the woman went to Arizona in October 2013, and left her home in the care of Brian Brow. When she returned in May 2014, Brow was missing and so were at least 20 other items, including her 2001 Buick Park Avenue car, a large anvil, an antique sewing machine, 20 pocket watches and a large crock pot. The value of the missing items is estimated at about $15,000." How much is a large anvil worth? I'm almost compelled to start a Large Anvil crime blog. H Almost. Full story from the Ravalli Republic.
