INDIANAPOLIS -- Police say they're looking for a former deliveryman accused of allowing people to raid a semitrailer containing nearly $30,000 worth of Miller Lite beer.
Authorities found the trailer Tuesday near the intersection of 29th and Harding streets in Indianapolis. Police said they believe the trailer, which once contained more than 14,000 cases of beer, was parked there about six weeks ago by a disgruntled deliveryman who had just been fired.
The trailer still contained some beer Tuesday. Information about the amount wasn't available."I'm really surprised there's any beer left," Marion County sheriff's Detective Christa Moncrief said. "I figured it would have been gone within the first week, but maybe not a lot of people knew it was here."An area liquor store tipped authorities to the trailer after someone tried to sell the store a pallet of beer.
