Dr Pepper holds a sacred place in most Texan’s heart.  Heck it was first created in Waco in 1880.  For many of us, Dr Pepper is life.

Knowing that, three dudes from Oklahoma are currently being accused of stealing some Dr Pepper syrup and trying to sell it on the cheap at a gas station.

And this wasn’t any small crime, either.  These guys stole $100,000 worth of syrup!

This was a total inside job, too.  Two of the accused used to worked at Dr Pepper, and one of the thieves admitted to stealing pallets of syrup while he was still employed there.

The third culprit worked at the gas station where the men were attempting to sell the syrup.

All three men are now facing felony charges.
