They made a grape escape.

Brazen thieves broke into a Los Angeles liquor store and stole roughly $700,000 worth of rare wines, according to the store owner.

The heist happened around 1 a.m. on Saturday morning, Nazmul Haque Helal, the owner of Lincoln Fine Wines, told KTLA.

$700K worth of rare wine

Hate to say it, but that is only about 2 cases of the really good stuff, so I am thinking not that rare, actully.

This reeks of insurance scam. I would certainly look into owners financial dealings. After all, he is selling way overvalued alcoholic beverages which is kind of a scam anyway.

Inside job. Glad I could claret up.

Why break-in? It would be much easier to walk in during business hours and just take it.

Mebbe the insurance company should check surveillance video from the store and the area...

video....

Before or after the spray paint on the lenses?

Stealing in bulk -

What’s the word?

$700,000 in that would take about five tractor trailers.

Where’d they hear about it?

Heard it through the grapevine.
