Sean Faulkner of Ross Township, Pennsylvania was arrested for a bizarre theft that "seemed like a good idea at the time." Faulkner was apparently tired of carrying a case of beer, so he took a forklift from a construction site. He drove about a mile to a sandwich shop, where he ordered a Reuben, but fled before paying for it.

“He said he was gonna go eat it in the corner and he ended up running out the front door, down the parking lot with the sandwich,” said Kelly Donatelli, who served him. “Just very bizarre. It was weird.”
That’s when he tried to make his getaway in a forklift. Ross Township police caught him.
“Apparently he was tired of walking and he saw the forklift with the keys in it and seemed like a good idea at the time,” Detective Brian Kohlhepp said.

He seems like a dumb criminal until you get to the "reuben sandwich" part. A good reuben will drive a man to madness.

Good thing they caught him. This could have spiraled totally out of control.
