Obama supporter surprises sign stealers




ST. PETERSBURG --
One of President Barack Obama's supporters made things a little tricky for the people responsible for stealing election signs from his front yard.

It all started when David Morris of St. Petersburg and his neighbors wanted to show their support for the President with yard signs.

"We said we were in a pretty conservative area, stereotypically, so we thought we should all put our signs out," he said.

"The lady who lives over there went and got some signs, and we all put them out. And they were gone in a day or two," said neighbor David Simpson.

Over the next few weeks, 12 signs disappeared.
