MOSCOW, October 31 (RIA Novosti) - Police in Moscow are looking for three men who stole 20 tons of Belarusian cheese from a lorry driver, a police source said on Friday.

"Three unknown men approached a truck driver pretending to be employees of the receiving company and obtained 20 tons of cheese under false pretences," the source said.

The men loaded the cheese, worth 2.2 million rubles ($81,000), onto their white Mercedes truck and fled.

A search for the thieves is underway who, if caught, face up to five years in prison.
