A search team was able to find the 79-year-old hunter, who became stuck in mud that he sunk into up to his neck and was trapped there for 33 hours.
The theft happened at 4:49 p.m. Wednesday, the post said. The trailer had been parked near the Bedell Bridge boat ramp in Haverhill, New Hampshire, while the search went on.
The suspect is said to have headed north on Route 10 afterward.
