SPRINGFIELD, Mo. ( KOLR ) — A Missouri woman said she used a small tracking device to locate a presidential campaign sign that someone allegedly took from her yard, and during the search, uncovered a car trunk filled with more stolen signage.
Laura McCaskill, of Springfield, said she not only found her Harris-Walz campaign sign but confronted the person she believes nabbed it in a video shared with Nexstar’s KOLR.
“This has been the fourth sign that’s been stolen from my yard,” McCaskill said.
Frustrated by the alleged thefts, McCaskill and her partner, John, decided to take a different approach this time: They attached an Apple AirTag to a campaign sign.
When the sign was stolen over the weekend, the couple said the tracker led them to a Springfield restaurant and eventually to a home in Nixa.
“We ring the doorbell because [my partner] recognizes the car,” McCaskill said.
