Druggies will steal most anything to support their addiction, even lobsters.

Updated today at 9:08 AM       ALLENTOWN, Pa. (AP) -- A Pennsylvania man could spend up to 25 years in prison for stealing lobsters he planned to sell to support his drug habit.
 
   Authorities say 47-year-old Charles Shumanis III repeatedly stole lobsters and meat from Allentown-area supermarkets, including a botched March 1 theft that included a parking lot car-jacking.
 
   Police say Shumanis stole meat and lobsters on two other occasions before he was confronted when he walked out of the store with $350 in lobsters.
 
   A Lehigh County judge on Monday recommended Shumanis serve time at a state prison able to help him deal with his drug and alcohol problems.
 
   Shumanis pleaded guilty in September to charges including retail theft and robbery of a motor vehicle.

I always thought "lobster pot" meant the kind of trap used to catch them. Maybe the definition has changed, eh?

And they will do this in broad daylight with no regard for getting caught. I had one once that stole an old dirty hard hat from the bed of a truck . Really dumb move because the cops saw him do it and he had three grams of coke in his pocket . I hope it was worth it .
He told the cops to leave him alone because he had to go to work. 
They are not the sharpest tools in the shed.

Hey maybe he was just hungry.

Hey maybe he was just hungry.     

He had a hunger alright, but I don't think it was for lobster.
