The basil factory is on high alert

First this:

DIXON (CBS13) ― Some serious foul play is going on at a Dixon chicken farm where thieves are stealing or killing hundreds of chickens and its costing the farmer thousands of dollars.

The Eatwell Farm in Dixon has been hit about 5 times since October costing the owner around $20,000.

And then, this:

STOCKTON (CBS13) ― Crates of tomato sauce in Stockton continued to smolder this morning, more than 12 hours after they began burning.

Five hundred plastic 300-gallon crates full of tomato product began burning yesterday afternoon at the Unilever Factory on Waterloo Road.

Coincidence? I think not.
