Oh no! Someone might get hurt trying to steal pecans!

Maybe they should have thought of that before they decided to steal them.

My dad is originally from Texas. The spike in prices is probably due to the drought in Texas and the rest of the Gulf Coast states. An uncle in Texas who passed away several years ago used to water pecan trees for somone else. This year my aunt in San Angelo lost both of her pecan trees in her yard due to the drought.
