All that was left of the 10-foot tree was a tiny stump and a
lot of questions as to who made off with heavily adorned tree
from the front yard of Karen Wilkes, who told reporters it cost
her $600 to have the tree planted about a month ago.
Nothing else was taken from the yard, police said.
"The other trees weren't decorated," said Major Don Linzy, chief
of detectives for the Sumner County Sheriff's Department, adding
this was one of the most unusual Christmas-time crimes he has
seen in his 30-year career.
