Thieves in central Canada stripped an orchard of some 90 kilograms of ripe Saskatoonberries, leaving police and farmers baffled at the work needed for a relatively low-price haul.

"There's not a whole lot that we know, other than it would have taken a substantial effort to clean off that many bushes of their berries, in any time period really," said Chris Ballard, a spokesman with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Manitoba.

A local farm newspaper said the thieves apparently had to haul their load across a ditch, over a fence and through other rows of berry bushes, before leaving the Winnipeg-area farm with the loot
