Two truckloads of Sammy Hagar’s tequila vanished last year. It shed light on a growing new crime.

Trucks carrying Santo Tequila, a brand founded by former Van Halen frontman Sammy Hagar and Food Network host Guy Fieri, vanished last year. This is how the sophisticated highway heist was pulled off.

Sammy Hagar is currently in Cabo San Lucas celebrating his birthday bash. His live album, Sammy Hagar & The Best Of All Worlds Band: The Residency, will be released tomorrow, Friday, October 10. His ‘Best Of All Worlds’ Las Vegas Residency resumes in March and September.
