Tractors worth $50,000 stolen from farm of Scottie Pippen

HAMBURG, Ark. -- Authorities in rural Arkansas are investigating the theft of more than $50,000 worth of equipment from a farm owned by former NBA star Scottie Pippen.

Investigator Mark Griever of the Ashley County Sheriff's Office said two tractors were stolen from the farm in Hamburg, about 110 miles southeast of Little Rock. According to the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, Pippen's family is offering a $2,500 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction.

Griever says Pippen owns the livestock farm with his brother.

Pippen, who now lives in Florida, is a native of Hamburg. Pippen won six NBA titles with the Chicago Bulls alongside Michael Jordan in the 1990s.
