ARLINGTON, TX — The Arlington Police Department are searching for a suspect whose “beer run” was captured on a surveillance camera.

"Here is a textbook definition of a beer run," the Arlington Police Department wrote on Twitter.

"This beer baron swiped 5 cases from a convenience store in the 5000 block of Little School Road and took off."

Authorities have released two images of the suspect. He can be seen lifting the cases of Bud Light over his head, and looking over his shoulder while he leaves with the beer.

Some commenters have stated that they find his wide-eyed expression comical.

The Arlington Police Department has said that they believe that the suspect left in a gray Dodge truck – and have asked anyone who recognizes the suspect to call them.
