CORONA, Calif. — Police in Corona are looking for some really wired thieves who swiped more than $42,000 worth of Monster Energy drinks.

The Riverside Press-Enterprise (http://bit.ly/2bGgDgX ) says a parked big-rig containing the drinks was stolen earlier this week from a vacant lot in the eastern Los Angeles suburb.

The truck cab and its trailer were found separately after midnight Wednesday in two nearby communities.

But the energy drinks are missing.
