Drivers of two HGVs carrying high-end Moët & Chandon manage to flee but officers recover stolen bubbly
French police are looking for a gang of champagne thieves after a high-speed motorway chase in which two heavy goods vehicles carrying a total of €600,000 (£523,000) worth of stolen prestige bottles sped through northern France.
Two trailers containing high-end champagne by Moët & Chandon disappeared in the early hours of Saturday morning in Reims, the capital of the Champagne region, according to reports in Le Parisien and on local TV.
