'Dumb & Dumber To' Crew Outwitted By Thieves...to the Sum of $500,000 — Here's What Happened

The "Dumb and Dumber To" film team was outwitted by a pair of thieves on Saturday.

According to authorities, thieves stole a camera — worth about $500,000 — from the crew as they dined inside a Georgia IHOP over the weekend.

Police say the camera weighs more than 100 pounds and is specifically used for shooting arial shots.

"It's mounted on a helicopter and used to do arial shots," detective Ernesto Ford said while speaking with WAGA-TV.

Police say a laptop and headset were also stolen.

Ford says the department is now offering a $5,000 reward for any information leading to the arrest of the suspects or recovery of the equipment.
