They were probably just out of detergent.
They needed to clean their masks before their next caper.
They really came there to steal toilet paper, but the store was out. The stole the next best thing, detergent.
Florida man strikes again!
CVS sells beer?
But they stole a lot of it, and they don’t look like they use detergent.
I didn’t even have to look at the state name to know where it happened :)

Ha ha! The joke’s on them. Don’t they know they’re drinking the Coronavirus straight from the bottle with Corona beer? I read that on the Internet so it has to be true!

Amazing detective work. I never would have guessed, and the thieves only go for the best detergent like Tide. From the article:
Tide bottles have become ad hoc street currency, with a 150-ounce bottle going for either $5 cash or $10 worth of weed or crack cocaine. On certain corners, the detergent has earned a new nickname: “Liquid gold.” The Tide people would never sanction that tag line, of course. But this unlikely black market would not have formed if they weren’t so good at pushing their product.
Florida men.
Need someone with Photoshop skills to have Looter Guy taking Corona instead of Heineken.
