A large shipment of bourbon worth more than $430,000 was stolen from a Philadelphia-area liquor warehouse after suspects allegedly tricked employees into loading the product onto a truck.
According to company officials, the theft involved 1,800 cases of Noble Oak Bourbon. Each case contained six bottles, with individual bottles selling for about $40. In total, the thieves allegedly left with approximately 10,800 bottles.
The company said the stolen bourbon could potentially be resold through illegal distribution channels. As a result, distributors, retailers, and consumers were urged to watch for unusually large quantities of Noble Oak being offered outside normal sales networks.
