Have you checked the neighbors' yards for potential culprits? You could also ask your local gardening club if they know who might be responsible, or post a sign in your yard warning would-be thieves. You could also try some natural deterrents like spraying the plants with vinegar and egg shells around the perimeter of your garden as a repellent.

You could try setting up a security cam or two to catch the thief in the act. You may also want to add some extra fencing around your melon patch to make it more difficult for someone to access. Increasing enforcement of local ordinances and notifying neighbors might help as well.
