百威蓝带啤酒悬赏2万美元寻找失窃啤酒
百威蓝带啤酒公司宣布悬赏2万美元，寻求能够帮助追回8月17日在南加州失窃的1,602箱百威蓝带啤酒和非酒精老密尔沃基啤酒的信息。首席执行官格雷格·德博在TikTok上发帖表示，公司希望追回这些啤酒，称拥有一车库满的百威蓝带啤酒"其实不酷"。
盗窃事件发生在位于加州蒙特克莱尔的百威英博分销中心，该中心距洛杉矶东部约40英里，同一天发生了两起独立事件。第一起盗窃中，价值约4.5万美元的运往亚利桑那州图森的啤酒被提走但未送达。一小时后，一家自称的分包公司使用虚假文件获得了另外2.5万美元的啤酒。
总计，盗贼盗走了4万磅啤酒，警方估计其价值为7万美元。百威蓝带要求在9月9日前追回啤酒，任何知情人士可通过电子邮件与公司联系。
