Burglars made off with 10,000 carnivorous plants from a Supply business this week.
Between 4:30 p.m. Wednesday and 7:49 a.m. Thursday when The Fly Trap Farm opened for business, the bandits gained entry into the building via a broken window and stole $65,000 worth of Venus' flytraps and the flytrap's bug-eating cousin the pitcher plant, said Brunswick County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Emily Flax.
In addition to the plants, which were kept in a greenhouse, a metal cart and tools were missing.
The burglary is under investigation.
