Storm damage tree cutout stolen

I had a call Wed to get bees out of a log in Burlington. A large branch fell into the home owners driveway and the street Tues night. The city worked up the limbs and rolled the log into the ditch Wed morning. I spent most of the afternoon splitting open the log and putting brood comb in frames. After finishing I set the hive in the mans yard 5 or 10 feet from the log and left it so the bees could secure the comb to the frames before transporting it home. Today I went by to check them and everything is gone. This is just plain bad luck but I guess any way you lose a hive is bad.
