New Delhi, Feb. 6 -- An incident was reported from Pennsylvania in the US where around one lakh eggs worth about $40,000 were snatched from the back of a trailer.

The heist could be because of the sky-high cost of eggs, police said.

To solve the case, the police are following up with any possible witnesses and scanning surveillance footage that could help them identify the perpetrator.

Pennsylvania State Police spokesperson Trooper First Class Megan Frazer said four days after the theft, no leads have come in.
