Police seek truckload of cognac

British police were searching for 85,000 pounds worth of fine cognac on Tuesday after a French truck driver was robbed as he slept in his truck.

The man was bundled out of his cab as he snoozed in a truck park in southern England. His assailants made off with his entire cargo of Courvoisier cognac.

"We would like to hear from anyone who is offered Courvoisier for sale," said Detective Inspector David Smith of Hampshire police.
