Trucks filled with meat, booze go missing

Either they were planning the mother of all Grey Cup parties or they don't want to go shopping for awhile.

Whatever the reason, police are scratching their heads in the wake of the bizarre theft of four tractor-trailers filled with meat and booze.

Police say thieves cut their way into a locked compound at a business in Puslinch Township on Saturday night and took off with the trucks. The trailers were loaded with hundreds of cases of chicken breasts, striploin beef, alcoholic beverages, plus new winter vehicle tires.

The value of the stolen loads and vehicles is estimated at nearly $530,000.

Police say the four stolen tractors are all Freightliner models.

All four trailers are new, white in colour with LS in large blue letters over the rear wheels and on the rear doors.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Rockwood OPP detachment at 519-856-1506 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Newsflash: Tanker truck of barbecue sauce vanishes.

Sounds like a bailout party to me.

Well, I was having a tough time coming up with supplies for the deer-calming excursion this year.

Didn't hardly need the snow tires. They was a bonus.
