WAYNE, N.J. (AP) — Four thieves have stolen nearly 200 pumpkins from a family-run farm in New Jersey.

Todd Kuehm, owner of Farms View Roadstand in Wayne, says surveillance footage recorded the pumpkin theft overnight on Tuesday.

The footage shows four people carrying the pumpkins to a van. Kuehm says the van can be seen pulling up to the farm stand three different times to steal the pumpkins.

Kuehm estimates the crop was worth more than $2,000.

He says the farm stand has been operating there for more than 120 years.

The family is offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.

Police are investigating.
