Mounties in Burnaby, B.C., have recovered pallets of beer, food and enough toilet paper and paper towels to supply a town in an investigation into the theft of shipping containers. 

RCMP say in a news release that three containers that held merchandise worth about $125,000 were stolen last August from a business in the city. 

They say the empty containers were found on a property in nearby Port Coquitlam a week later, but no arrests were made.
