Beer Burglar Strikes Quiet Texas Town

While worse things have been stolen during a burglary, waking up and finding all your beer missing from the fridge would be pretty upsetting.

According to KPRC, Greg Shell of Friendswood, Texas went into his garage and noticed there were 8 beers missing. You’d think there’d be a high probability that Shell just drank them and didn’t notice, but there were similar reports of missing beer in other homes around the area.

Although the beer stolen might not be a big deal, residents are afraid that it could lead to something more serious in their quiet town. “Where we live, you don’t typically have problems like this,” said Shell.

There were similar incidents reported to Friendswood police last summer as over a half dozen homes were burglarized, had their beer stolen, cars vandalized and trash cans set on fire. An arrest was made in that case and police are investigating if these burglaries are related to last year’s.

The beer bandit is still at large, so residents will have to hide their Buds, hide their Lites, and hide their Heineken’s cause they stealing all the beers out here.
