The staff of a store called the police on the afternoon of January 17, 2024. They had just spotted a woman escaping with Stanley bottles enough to fill a shopping cart, without paying for them. "The suspect refused to stop for staff and stuffed her car with the stolen merchandise," the police revealed. She was later stopped by a police officer and arrested for Grand Theft. The stolen items, valued at nearly $2500 (approx INR 2 Lakhs), were recovered from her vehicle.

"While Stanley Quenchers are all the rage, we strongly advise against turning to crime to fulfil your hydration habits," The Roseville Police wrote in a Facebook post. They also shared photos of the merchandise they found. The images show the trunk of the car almost overflowing with various types of Stanley tumblers.
