DONNA, TEXAS -- Donna police have launched a search to find two men who stole $21,000 worth of landscaping equipment from a local business.

The suspects broke into Crazy J's over the weekend by using bow cutters to get through the gate.

Then, the men took a trailer and loaded it with landscaping equipment.

After the first load, police said the suspects came back for more.

"Normally, when people steal equipment of this magnitude, they're trying to sell it," explained a DPD investigator.  "It is easy money.  Most of the stuff we end up finding later at flea markets or across the border in Mexico."

If you have any information on this burglary, please call Donna Crime Stoppers at (956)464-TIPS.
