A man stole a lawn tractor from a Canadian Tire store in Stratford, Ont., Friday evening.

Police said a man in his late 50s or early 60s drove the tractor from the outdoor display area and loaded it onto a waiting vehicle in the store's side parking lot.

The suspect is described as 5-feet, 10 inches tall and weighing about 200 lbs. He was wearing a ball cap and dark jacket.

The lawn tractor is a 2012 green, 19.5-hp Yardworks with a 42-inch cutting deck.
