Check this video out from Lake George. Pete and Denice Spinosa got tired of their lawn signs and flags being stolen from their Truesdale Road property. So they installed a trail camera and caught a woman in the act.

Pete, who is retired military, says they paid for their signs and flag with their own money. He says they just want them back. They’re not interested in pressing charges.
