A daring individual with an expensive taste recently found himself in a bit of trouble with the law. This person, whose identity remains unknown, made off with a limited-edition whisky bottle worth a staggering $62,000 from a boutique liquor store in Melbourne. The incident, which occurred on May 22nd, has since caught the attention of the Victoria Police.
According to reports, the thief entered the store, located at an entertainment complex in Southbank, and struck up a conversation with one of the female staff members. He then proceeded to ask for a closer look at a few bottles of alcohol, seemingly interested in making a purchase. However, while the staff member's back was turned, the thief took advantage of the situation and swiftly grabbed a prized bottle of Johnnie Walker Masters of Flavour from the shelf. To conceal his act, he slyly hid the bottle down the front of his shorts before calmly exiting the store.
As you can imagine, the store was left in a state of shock and dismay upon realizing what had happened. In an effort to track down the culprit, the Victoria Police have released CCTV images of a person they believe may have information that could aid in their investigation.
