Coffee crooks steal — and wreck — Mobile business' trailer
Theodore family shocked after lightning strike leads to surprise discovery
MOBILE, Ala. (WKRG) — Mobile Police officers are looking for a pair of coffee crooks. Two people stole a coffee trailer from a west Mobile coffee drive-through business before dawn Monday morning.
Brew Y'all at the corner of Cottage Hill and Hillcrest Roads — stands out. It has a bright design outside, and even local touches like the Chrichton Leprechaun. They have the same vibrant art on their mobile coffee trailer. Monday morning, a pair of thieves attached it to their truck and took off.
'Watching the video gave me chills just knowing that they took something this easily, just came in and took something that wasn't theirs,' said Co-Owner Morgan Saux. Co-Owner Zachary Saux says it was taken minutes before he showed up to open for the day. He says the thieves appeared very methodical.
'For 30 minutes, it seemed very planned. Like I said, they knew what they were coming to do and they knew what they were looking for. So it wasn't just happenstance,' said Zachary Saux. Brew Y'all isn't even a year old. And as a locally owned business, they say this hits them really hard.
'Our trailer was like, our little way that always got us out in the community. And this week we had so much lined up with teachers and nurses at the hospital. So we're really bummed about that,' said Morgan Saux. The co-owners say they poured $40,000 into making the trailer and had to cancel several upcoming gigs, which means expected revenue down the drain.

'We put our heart and soul in this. And, you know, for somebody to take something like that that, you know, means so much to us, our family, you know, our partners, family, all of our employees. You know, we treat our business like a family,' said Zachary Saux.
