Make thieves with 100,000 of the most expensive elements in the United States today – eggs.
The fraudsters stole more than $ 40,000 of organic eggs from the warehouse of a wholesaler in Grenastel, Pennsylvania, where the prices of the product rises amid a national shortage caused by bird flu.
“This is a great felony, given the value of what has been taken,” said state soldier Megan Fraser from the incident, which was revealed during the weekend.
Thieves can be sold or even used for sabotage purposes.
We do not know what the purpose of the theft of 100,000 will be at this time. With the increasing price of eggs, someone may think he could sell them.
This is the first time that the eggs were stolen as they are in the service.
“The only thing that is closed 10 years ago when someone stole a trailer filled with chicken,” said Fraser.
Thieves stormed an unknown trailer in the Beit and Jerry membership depots before nine o’clock on Saturday, according to the police.
The warehouse is located about 65 miles southwest of the capital of Harrispurg and 170 miles to the west of Philadelphia.
Eggs cost more than 50 % more than last year, for each consumer price index report at the American Labor Statistics Office issued on Friday.
The average cost was $ 5.29 for dozens of eggs in late January, according to the NIQ consumer research group. About a year ago, the price for dozens of eggs was about $ 3.50.
Beyond grocery stores, customers suffer from high prices in restaurants. The famous House Wafle House in the breakfast chain that offers more than 272 million eggs annually, implemented an additional cost of 50 cents for each one arranged.
Up to 17.2 million chickens due to bird flu.
There are no threads in the crime and the authorities ask to help the public to find thieves.
“This egg robbery,” said Fraser New York Times“Certainly unusual and gain national attention.”
