A North Carolina man is facing multiple felony charges after he broke into a Little Caesars after closing time and started making and selling pizzas, according to police. It happened Sunday, the day after a massive snow storm hit the state, and the suspect kept all the money for himself, the Kinston Police Department said in a Feb. 2 news release.

An arrest was made after the suspect tried to break into the shop a second time, police said.

There was some guy I want to say in Wisconsin that worked at a zoo. Collecting parking fees for like 30 years and kept all the money. And got away with it. Nobody knew who hired him evidently, nobody did.
