WI brisket bandit; suspect got away with 12 pounds of smoked meat
EAU CLAIRE, Wis. - Police in northwest Wisconsin are trying to piece together the case of the brisket bandit.
Officials noted in a post on the Eau Claire Police Department Facebook page that earlier this week, a family was smoking a brisket overnight. A person apparently caught the scent and swindled it while the family slept.
The suspect entered the victim's backyard and "made a clean getaway with 12 pounds of smoked deliciousness," officials said.
