Hot dog thief get 18 months in prison
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WORCESTER, Mass. — A Massachusetts man who stole a hot dog from another man sitting under a tree in a park has been sentenced to 18 months in prison.
Antonio Judd pleaded guilty Monday in Worcester Central District Court to charges including larceny from a person, the Telegram&Gazette newspaper reported.
Police say Judd grabbed the hot dog in August after flashing what appeared to be a gun in Elm Park in Worcester.
Police reports say Judd began to devour the hot dog, spilling mustard all over his shirt. They say when he was arrested later he was carrying a pellet gun and a pocket knife.
Seemingly this guy only got sentenced to 18 months because he used a pellet gun. I don't think they would throw a guy in jail for stealing a hot dog. Or else I've been in trouble because I've snagged a few beers in my day. I never used a gun, but its a thought. If the Mexico money runs out I may have to resort to it.
P.S. - I heard Seth Meyers on SNL beat me to this story and made the point that if the theif would have stolen the man's wallet he could have bought lots of hot dogs.
