Police in North Carolina intercepted a truck filled with nearly 18,000 pounds of commercial toilet paper on Wednesday as retailers are battling a global shortage of the paper product due to coronavirus.
The Guilford County Sheriff's Office said that they discovered the stolen goods after realizing that the 53-foot, 18-wheel truck had been reported stolen.
The truck was being used to transport the large supply of commercial toilet paper to a warehouse facility near Interstate 40 in Whitsett, North Carolina.
Photos provided by the sheriff's department show dozens of boxes filled with thousands of stolen rolls.
