A 36-year-old man in Miami was arrested last week.  He was caught stealing from a farm . . . and he used a stolen semi as his getaway vehicle.  It had a refrigerated trailer, with $140K worth of poultry inside.

The two main qualifications for a getaway vehicle should be:  Discreet and fast.  Well, this guy was 0-for-2.

A 36-year-old man in Miami was arrested for multiple felonies last week.  He reportedly stole from a farm back in December . . . and then RETURNED to the scene of the crime last Wednesday afternoon to do some more thieving.

Someone called the police, and they showed up just in time to see the man . . . but he escaped in a getaway vehicle:  Which was a stolen, 53-foot refrigerated semi, carrying 10 pallets of poultry valued at $140,000.  (???)

He did NOT steal the truck from the farm . . . he’d stolen it earlier and drove it there . . . so he DID intend on that being his getaway vehicle.

He led police officers on a chase . . . at one point driving the wrong way down a road, straight toward a cop car.  (Playing chicken with a poultry truck.  Nice.)

He eventually crashed the semi into a fence at a second farm, and was apprehended.  He’s being held on a $54,500 bond.
