$400K worth of live lobsters stolen after leaving Mass. facility

Police are investigating a potential heist after $400,000 worth of live lobsters was stolen from a truck transporting the seafood to Costco locations in Illinois and Minnesota. 

 

The shipment was picked up in Taunton, Mass., but never arrived at its final destination, according to Dylan Rexing, CEO of Rexing Companies.

 

“It directly impacts businesses and contributes to higher prices for consumers,” he added. 

 

The possible theft follows a seafood shipment incident earlier this month, where items were stolen from the same Massachusetts facility.
