The crime took place in Austin, TX during broad daylight and now the community is searching for answers. The 14-foot tall skeleton, which has become a popular fixture amongst Halloween home decor in the last few years, was swiped from the house and caught on a Ring doorbell camera system.

According to local news station Fox 7 Austin a $50 dollar reward has been pooled amongst the neighbors for information leading to the skeleton’s safe return.

In the video, which began to circulate on Twitter via @DallasTexasTV, it shows the brazen criminal pull up to the front yard and attempt to fit the entire skeleton in a large SUV.

During the ploy, the neighborhood appeared quiet with no witnesses walking by.

The president of the local HOA board Grazia Ruskin said “It is ‘just a Halloween decoration.’ But somebody invaded our space and they took [her] property, and that’s not okay with me.”
