Neighborhood PSA – Beware of the #Southie Pumpkin Bandit

Nobody likes a jerk
It’s that time of year. The time when pumpkins and gourds start to line neighborhood’s stoops next to pots of mums and marigolds. Here’s a friendly reminder, please don’t steal the pumpkins and gourds.
One resident had her stoop on East Third all decorated for fall for one day and then next morning she awoke to find she’d been a victim of the Pumpkin Bandit.
Before

After
No one likes when their pumpkins and gourds get stolen so do your best to behave and resist the urge. If you have a friend stealing pumpkins, tell them to quit acting like a jabroni!
Side note – remember when #Southie had a Tree Butcher?
