Theft of 100,000 Eggs in Pennsylvania Remains Unsolved

In Pennsylvania, police are investigating the unusual theft of 100,000 eggs from a distribution trailer belonging to Pete & Gerry’s Organics, valued at approximately $40,000. Four days post-theft, authorities have no leads and are urging community members to come forward with any information. The incident is believed to be linked to soaring egg prices, which have more than doubled due to ongoing bird flu outbreaks forcing farmers to cull chickens. The average price of eggs nationwide reached $4.15 per dozen in December, with predictions of a further 20% increase this year. Trooper First Class Megan Frazer noted that this type of theft is unprecedented in her experience, emphasizing the need for public assistance in solving the case. The company is collaborating with law enforcement to address the situation promptly.
