ST.CHARLES, Minn. — A man loaded a 10-cubic foot John Deere cart with items he wanted to give away. He pulled the cart to end of his driveway for passersby to sort through. The sign: “Free for the taking.” You guessed it: Somebody took the cart, valued at $380, and left everything else. This was on Equine Drive northeast of St. Charles.
