BUFFALO, N.Y. First he stole a potato chip delivery truck, then he tried to sell its cargo for five dollars so he could get a beer.
That's according to police in Buffalo, New York, where a man was arrested yesterday and charged with driving while intoxicated, grand larceny and other offenses.
Police say the man drove off in a Frito-Lay delivery truck after the driver left the keys in the ignition. A witness told police that the man stepped out of the truck with a box of chips and offered to sell the whole truck for 20 dollars, but said he'd settle for five bucks because he wanted a beer.
Officers say the man hit two parked cars before he was apprehended while trying to hide behind a building.
Authorities say he had a blood-alcohol content of point-two-six -- more than three times the legal limit

I understand this guy. After all, what good is it to have chips and no beer?

"That guy used to work for me."This guy still works for me. But I am told I can't fire him because has as a disease caused by pressures at work and I must pay to put him in a rehab program.
