Thousands of dollars’ worth of bourbon was stolen from a popular Louisville karaoke bar just before Kentucky Derby weekend, according to local news network WLKY. Matthew Farley, owner of NoraeBar, discovered that several bottles and a cash box were missing from the establishment upon opening on April 28.
The alleged thief took about $3,000 worth of spirits in the early hours of the morning, as Farley tells WLKY. He refers to the theft as a “surgical strike,” noting that the trespasser entered through the front door by popping open the door’s crash bar from the outside.
