KMOX's previous reporting:
As if having to close because of coronavirus isn't bad enough, a Maplewood bar and restaurant had its custom-made, wood-fired pizza oven trailer stolen over the weekend.
Tapped STL posted on social media that its 5,000-pound, four-wheel trailer with a gray and black oven was taken.
The restaurant, located at 7278 Manchester Rd. in Maplewood, is asking whoever took it to return it, no questions asked.
The trailer is worth about $30,000, says owner Ryan Reel.
Tapped doesn't have surveillance cameras but Reel hopes neighboring businesses can help.
The trailer was primarily used for big events, like the Taste of Maplewood, and can't be used for catering or curbside service.
