Sabor del Sol, a Zebulon-based Tequila brand, was the target of a attempted heist in Laredo, Texas. Someone tried to drive away with a six-figure sum, or 8,000 bottles, of their product.

Patrón is synonymous with tequila, but the premium brand's starting price tag may be difficult for many to shoot down. A bottle of Patrón Silver costs $50, or $600 for a 12-bottle case.
