A store manager called from Tobacco and Beer, located at 7721 Hacks Cross Road, to report the theft of two refrigeration units.  It was noticed after customers were telling the store employees that their beer was not cold.  The units were stolen from the rear of the business and appear to be the only two that did not have steel frames bolting them to the concrete slab.
