A real-life Hamburglar

I don't know if many of you have heard of this yet, but there was a real-life Hamburglar that broke into, of all places, a McDonald's. Overnight Saturday into early Sunday, Whitley Teslow, a Wartburg College student, had a little bit of a late-night food craving after having a few drinks in the downtown Cedar Falls bars, so he went to the Micky-D's on First Street. However, that location closes at midnight, so when he went to the drive thru window, no one answered.

Allegedly, Teslow broke the forward drive-thru window and climbed into the restaurant. He fired up the grill and frier and cooked himself a burger, some fries and had a drink. He's even shown pumping ketchup in one shot. After he was finished, he left through the same window he broke to get in. Odd thing is, there was another McDonald's location two miles away near the intersection of Main Street and University Avenue that is open 24 hours.

Teslow now faces third-degree burglary, fourth-degree criminal mischief and fifth-degree theft. The most serious charge, burglary, carries a maximum five-year prison sentence and $7,500 fine. I guess this will turn out to be a truly unhappy meal.
