Pabst Offers Reward for Stolen Beer Truck
2 Sep
Summary
- Nearly 40,000 pounds of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer were stolen.
- The theft occurred at an Anheuser-Busch distribution center in Montclair.
- Police are investigating two separate thefts totaling approximately $70,000.
On August 17, a significant quantity of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer went missing from a Southern California distribution center. The theft involved approximately 40,000 pounds of beer, with two separate incidents occurring on the same day. In the first, a shipment valued at about $45,000, destined for Tucson, Arizona, was taken. Shortly after, another shipment worth approximately $25,000 was fraudulently collected.
Pabst Blue Ribbon has initiated a public appeal, offering a substantial cash reward for information that leads to the recovery of the stolen beer. The company humorously urged the culprits to return the shipment with "no questions asked." Police are actively investigating these incidents, valued collectively at roughly $70,000, to determine if they are part of a larger cargo-theft operation.
