Someone Really Likes Frozen Drumsticks …

WAUKESHA, Wis. (AP) — A recovered semitrailer missing its 8,000-pound cargo of frozen food has authorities wondering, "Where's the beef?"

Authorities said they recovered the stolen semitrailer late Wednesday, but the food wasn't there.

The food, mostly poultry, was valued at $11,000, Waukesha Police Capt. Mike Babe said Thursday. The 30-foot truck also contained 11 cases of high-end meat worth $250 a case, he said.

The vehicle was taken from Dierks Waukesha, a food distribution company, early Wednesday. An employee said he saw a man he did not recognize drive off with the truck at 4:50 a.m.

Later that night, authorities received an anonymous phone call saying that the truck was in Milwaukee, Babe said. Milwaukee police then confirmed it was the missing vehicle.
