A couple hundred cases of stolen beer recovered after vehicle pursuits result in 7 arrests by Fontana Police Department
Seven suspects have been arrested in connection with cargo thefts in Fontana, Calif., police said.
The City of Fontana Police Department said Thursday that officers spent the prior few nights investigating cargo thefts from train yards at the south end of the city.
“After two short vehicle pursuits and a traffic stop,” officers recovered a stolen cargo truck and a “couple hundred” cases of stolen Modelo beer, the department said.
Photos released by police show what appear to be empty pallets on a train car, as well as the vehicles stopped by officers. Cases of Modelo can be seen stacked in the back of a pickup truck and inside two other vehicles.
Seven people were arrested in connection with the thefts, but police did not provide any additional information on the suspects.
