At least six signs in Wellseley, Massachusetts have been stolen in the past four months, leaving only 'metal stumps' behind.
: Someone keeps stealing the street signs for Old Town Road, a tiny lane in bucolic Wellseley, located about 15 miles from Boston Common.
"It's mounted on the post, so if someone wanted to steal just a sign, they would have to take a hacksaw and saw it off at the top of the post," Stephanie Hawkinson, the town's communications project director, told the it believes the culprits are just pranksters,"but it costs the town a lot of time and money to locate, repair—and where the signs and posts are damaged—replace, and reinstall the signs."But, Hawkinson says, there can be more serious consequences—especially if firefighters or EMTs get lost. "[It] could mean life or death for someone in need. I know it sounds dramatic, but it's a very real and frightening possibility.
