Kudos to Art Nichols and Moncks Corner.

MONCKS CORNER, S.C. (WCIV) — Art Nichols sells used construction equipment in Moncks Corner, and for thieves his business is a gold mine. In the past, he says surveillance cameras haven't worked. He hopes a threat, however, will.

About three months ago, he put up a big sign that sits on Highway 52 in Moncks Corner. Needless to say, it has many drivers doing a double take.

"This really gets their attention," the own of Nichols Equipment Inc., said.

Nichols hopes that sign sends a message that he means business. In big, bright letters, the sign bluntly reads: Thieves will be shot.

"We hope it'll be a theft deterrent," he said. "We're just looking to keep our place safe. We don't want any problems out of nobody."
