SEDRO-WOOLLEY, Wash. - A 700-pound cedar log stolen from the annual Loggerodeo Chain Saw Carving Contest in Sedro-Woolley has organizers stumped.

Police Chief Doug Wood says it's a mystery who took the 8-foot log and why. He doesn't have any witnesses or leads.

The log, worth about $500 intact, disappeared from a downtown parking lot Sunday night or Monday morning.

Contest organizer JB Bryson thinks whoever took it had experience with logs and likely cut it into three pieces for the getaway.
