Darwin Olympics: Pepsi Thief Can’t Escape

Meanwhile in Florida . . .

When you got that thirst . . . you might want to quench it — but, do it legally.

A 49 year old named Gabriel Tillman grabbed a bottle of Pepsi off a shelf near the door — attempting to use his five finger discount and tried to make a break for it.

A totally-aware-of-the-situation cashier noticed what was going on and remotely locked the door.

Gabriel kept trying to get out with the soda by throwing himself against the door . . . tried slamming a fire extinguisher against it . . . then finally gave up.

As the sheriff’s office relayed it on Facebook, “Gabriel huffed, and he puffed, but he could not blow the door down.”

Eventually, the cashier unlocked the door out of fear the Pepsi thief would cause serious damage to it, but deputies spotted him two blocks away enjoying his pop.

Dude was arrested and charged with petit theft, criminal mischief . . . AND grand theft of a fire extinguisher (even though he tossed it back down before exiting the store)!

Oh yeah . . . there’s video.
