Police in Norfolk County say someone drove away with $125,000 worth of marked tobacco from a Vittoria property earlier this month.

The theft of the white, 53-foot “reefer trailer” happened early on Oct. 19 on Vittoria Road, police say.

Reefer or refrigeration trailers are insulated or equipped with a cooling system to transport perishable goods.
