Modern problems require modern solutions and this guy took it way too far. Police teams went to the airport after the report that a scoop was found in the parking lot. The owner of the vehicle arrived at the parking lot shortly after. Sheriff Jeff Diederich reported that the bucket was at a construction site about 16 kilometers from the airport before it was stolen. 

Captured in Nevada, Baggott was arrested and released. However, the thief was re-arrested a day later for stealing a different vehicle and placed in Elko County Jail.
