Fowler robbed Walmart of five steaks, pilfered the rib-eyes, shoved them under his butt on the scooter’s seat, and attempted to leave hurriedly before he was caught.
Writes the NY Daily News: “The latest theft story at Wal-Mart is far from being well-done. A 350-pound man was arrested for shoplifting five rib eye stakes on Tuesday at a Wal-Mart in Spartanburg, S.C.”
Fowler, 43, was taken by Walmart staff into an office, where police were then called. “Suspect sat on the steaks and exited the store passing all points of sale, without attempting to pay for said merchandise,” the police report said. Perhaps he was tenderizing?
When taking Fowler into custody, police had to get a little inventive. “Due to his size, the suspect was cuffed using two pairs of cuffs. Cuffs were double-locked and checked for fit,” said the report.
Adds Opposing Views, which carried the mugshot of our hefty burglar: “After three hours in the Spartanburg County Jail, Fowler was released without bond.
No word if the steaks were re-shelved in the Walmart or thrown away.”
