Man uses stolen forklift for getaway after stealing sandwich


Man uses stolen forklift for getaway after stealing sandwich
By Katie Wiggin





(CBS/AP/KDKA) PITTSBURGH, Pa. -- A Pennsylvania man is accused of stealing a sandwich and then hopping on a stolen forklift to make his getaway.

On Sunday, 38-year-old Sean Faulkner walked into Sieb's Pub, ordered a Reuben sandwich, and then ran out without paying. He jumped into the forklift he had pilfered from a construction site earlier that day.

Kelly Donatelli, who served him at Seib's said, "He said he was gonna go eat in the corner and he ended up running out of the front door, down the parking lot with the sandwich. Just very bizarre. It was weird." ...........(more)

2. Today's 'Dumbest Hammer in the Bag' Award Pour la Merite
He's in the Bag. Enjoy your stay.

He gets extra points for not eating the sandwich before he makes his escape. Gets caught, doesn't get to eat the sandwich.

4. Very, very heavy sandwich, I guess.
Did the police give chase on a bulldozer?

9. Not a bad haul for one day--a set of wheels AND a reuben.
Plus, his ride can lift stuff.
