Nutley Cops Seek Alleged Red Bull Thief: 83 Cans Stolen, Police Say

NUTLEY, NJ — Nutley police are seeking a man who allegedly stole 83 cans of Red Bull from a Franklin Avenue store earlier this month, authorities say.

The store’s manager told police that a male entered the premises on Aug. 10, grabbed a backpack, went into the rear of the store and filled the pack up with 83 cans of Red Bull energy drinks. He then allegedly left the store and drove off in a silver vehicle – possibly a Hyundai – heading east through the parking lot, the manager stated.

Store personnel described the suspect as a Hispanic male about 5 foot 8 inches and 180 pounds, with a beard and wearing a green reflective vest and a backwards baseball cap.

The backpack was valued at $19.99 and the Red Bull drinks at $1.99 each, police said. An investigation is ongoing.
