EASTON â At 2:35 a.m. on Dec. 28, three trespassers pulled up outside Qlarantâs office building in a four-door pickup truck. They planned to steal the companyâs 18-foot inflatable Frosty the Snowman, a beloved Christmas decoration in Easton for the past four years.
The Chevy Crew cab-truck swung by the building once, rumbling down Brooks Drive, then circled back from Marlboro Avenue. Two adult male passengers clambered out, and the vehicle drove off down the road.
The thieves quickly got to work. After uprooting multiple stakes that anchored the deflated snowman to the ground, they pulled the extension cord and an electric fan all the way to the street as their ride whipped back around one final time.
