Washington D.C. – In a brazen move that has left city officials reeling, the police department seized a privately owned truck containing 60 cases of wine and liquor bound for the Siamese Legation. The cargo, valued at a handsome sum, was eventually delivered to its destination, but the driver and helper were not as fortunate. Behind bars on a $500 bond, they were to face arraignment today, but a last-minute postponement has put the proceedings on ice.
