A California man was arrested Tuesday after he allegedly stole hundreds of dollars worth of avocados from a ranch, according to officials.

Christian Lara Medrano, 37, was caught on surveillance video Sunday taking part in the alleged heist, the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's Office said in a news release.

The manager of Suey Ranch in Nipomo, a city roughly 125 miles west of Bakersfield, noticed that, over the course of a few weeks, the property's fence near the front gate kept being cut.

He suspected someone was sneaking on to the property to steal avocados, so he set up game security cameras to catch the avocado thief in the act.

Medrano was spotted driving near the gates, but when he saw law enforcement, quickly turned around. His vehicle was found nearby, but he fled. Eventually, deputies said they discovered Medrano hiding in a bush.
