According to prosecutors, the two suspects arrived at the store in a rented truck and backed the truck into a parking space near the store. The pair then allegedly entered the store and filled a shopping cart with $2,360.08 worth of items.
Among the items were four bottles of Patron Silver Tequila, four bottles of Patron Tequila Reposado, four bottles of Hennessy Cognac, one bottle of Remy Martin, one 18-pack of Modelo Especial, and 89 other miscellaneous items.
The suspects then left the store without paying, but observed the responding officers and at that point they fled on foot.
