in power being off for several hours on Monday.  The truck was stolen about 4 a.m. by two men from Florida working in Garden City for the season.  They drove the truck  on 300 West and tried to turn on 200 N.  The men, who were intoxicated, could not make the turn going north and smashed into the power box.   Then they went out in the field and smashed back through the field fence to get back to 300 West.  They  abandoned the truck which by then had damage.  

Evidently there was video of the  perpetrators and they were arrested Monday.
