More than 500 eggs stolen from West Seattle cafe

https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/law-justice/more-than-500-eggs-stolen-from-west-seattle-cafe/

Over 500 eggs were stolen from Luna Park Cafe on Wednesday morning.

The thieves hit the West Seattle cafe, located in the 2900 block of Southwest Avalon Way, around 4:42 a.m. Wednesday, according to Seattle police.

Security footage shows two men entering the restaurant’s refrigerator and stealing about 540 eggs, some bacon, ground beef and “liquid egg products,” police said. About $780 in goods were stolen, with eggs accounting for $387.

The breakfast goods were loaded into a van and the thieves left the scene. They later returned but quickly left when they realized an employee was there, police said.


Well, that's $393 worth of non-egg products. More than the eggs are worth? Interesting.

Who would want so many eggs?
