RALEIGH, N.C. — A Mexican restaurant in downtown Raleigh is missing some of its decorative cacti this holiday season.

According to a Facebook post by Gringo A Go Go, the green, metal sculptures were stolen from the restaurant, located at 100 N. Person Street, earlier this week.

The restaurant is offering a $200 reward for the name and location of the cacti and promised to be "discreet when retrieving the items."

"These are not for sale anywhere in the area so if you should happen upon one at a friend's house, it is stolen and belongs to me," the post read.

According to the post, owners wrapped the cacti in green solar lights for Christmas. The thief cut the wires in order to stealthily remove the cacti.
