Remember just earlier this month when OffHollywood studio head Mark
Pederson became the first man to own a RED EPIC? Well, now his $58,000
über camera is gone. According to REDUSER forums, the EPIC was
heisted last night along with some cash from Pederson's chalet in
France while he and his family were sleeping. Pederson shares on the
forum that "there was a forced entry through the front door. The
thieves actually entered the master bedroom while my in-laws were
sleeping, and standing a foot from their bed - emptied wallet and
purse. There were 6 children and 8 adults sleeping in the house."
That's a scary caper worthy of a Hollywood script for sure, but
thankfully no one was hurt. Here's hoping the movie-like storyline
continues now with law enforcement gumshoes actually cracking the
case. In the meantime, maybe Peter Jackson can lend Pederson one of
his 30 RED EPICs until his own baby returns.

[Thanks, Derek]
