BRIEF: Whiskey bottle worth $3,500 stolen from Weston liquor store

WESTON, Nov 06, 2009 (Sun Sentinel - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- Three days passed before liquor store employees realized their $3,500 bottle of whiskey was gone.

The limited edition Johnnie Walker Blue Label bottle had been pried away from its display case and replaced with a different bottle, authorities said.

Surveillance video from Master Wine Liquor, at 4569 Weston Road, showed a man shove the bottle in his pants while a woman distracted employees, Broward Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Keyla Concepcion said.

The heist was recorded about 6 p.m. Oct. 30.

Only six bottles of the 200th Anniversary Johnnie Walker Blue Label were distributed in Florida, Concepcion said.


The thief is described as a man about 5 feet 9 inches tall, weighing about 250 pounds. During the theft, he was wearing a black-and-white striped shirt with a collar and blue jeans.

The Sheriff's Office asks anyone with information about this incident to call Detective Chris Anderson at 954-389-2010 or Broward County Crime Stoppers, anonymously, at 954-493-TIPS (8477).
