LONDON, Ont. -- This little piggy went to market. Scores of Honey-Bee hams didn't, though.
One hundred and seventy of the hams were stolen from a refrigeration truck outside the Honey-Bee Ham Co. on Adelaide St. N.
The value of the hijacked hams is estimated at $10,000.
London police investigated a tip that the hams were being hocked on Kijiji but the listing turned out to be a hoax.
Const. Will Knelsen said it was unusual to have such a large theft of perishable goods.
"They'll have to use it or get rid of it quickly. It's not like jewelry," he said.

LONDON -- It turns out having $20,000 worth of ham stolen right before the holidays is good for business.
One hundred and eighty hams were taken from a refrigeration truck parked outside Honey-Bee Ham Co. days before Christmas.
Police said on the weekend a London man, 33, was charged with possession of stolen property under $5,000 after some of the stolen meat was found in his home.
News of the ham heist made the headlines across the country, drumming up some extra business, owner Jeff Brode said.
"The phone's been ringing a bit more."
Police returned 26 of the 180 hot hams, but don't expect the pinched pork to end up on a dinner plate anytime soon, Brode said.
"They're long gone in the garbage."
So what happened to the rest of missing meat?
"We're still investigating," London police Const. Jane Crosby said.
Investigators looked into a tip that the hams were being hocked on Kijiji, but the listing turned out to be a hoax.
Honey-Bee was still able to fill all its Christmas orders, and the company is well stocked to meet demand for New Year's Eve, Brode said.
