Twenty-seven persons have been indicted in a theft ring that has stolen $5 million worth of grain and farm supplies in 11 states since 1980, federal authorities said. The indictments climaxed a three-year investigation of the ring, which stole most of its grain at night from elevators in remote areas, said James Ahearn, head of the FBI’s regional office in Omaha.
