Chesapeake, Va. - Two snowmen dressed as Jedis were the victims of a brutal attack on Thursday night.

Surveillance video from Jennifer England's house shows a car driving past her home, suddenly stopping and backing up. Then someone from the car dropkicks the snowmen and takes the lightsabers before running back to the car and speeding off.

England is not terribly upset over the stolen lightsabers, but says the action itself is disappointing.

"Obviously, it would be great if they were returned, but I'm not counting on it," she said. "Mostly, it would just be nice if the world would know - when you see a snowman you are supposed to smile and be happy about it and not run off with his scarf and leave him cold and shivering."

Although "The Force" was not with the two Jedi snowmen on Thursday, England says she will continue to build Star Wars-themed snowmen the next time Mother Nature strikes back.
