DENHAM SPRINGS - A man was arrested for stealing over 12 packs of steaks and multiple packs of hamburger meat, the Livingston Parish Sheriff's Office said. Officials said they received calls about Michael Ardoin, 57, exiting the Denham Springs Walmart without paying for concealed items and re-entering to do it again. Officials were able to pull him over on I-12 in a vehicle with no license plate. Deputies said that they found two packs of lean hamburger meat, four packs of ribeyes and eight more packs of angus ribeyes. They also learned more packs of meat were taken from Sam's, as well. LPSO said the meat was returned to stores and the packages will be destroyed.

If this was 1998 it would be a misdemeanor.

Interesting. Others are allowed to walk out with baskets full, TVs and pick and go in high end purse stores, yet he is pulled over on interstate. That said, thieves should have their hands cut off.

Why? Why give Walmart the chance to re-shelf meat that has the possibly of being tampered with?

New Orleans had the largest group lynching in American history. Spoiler alert: they were Italians.


Fun Fact

The next year, President Benjamin Harrison, hoping to repair things, created Columbus Day to honor the Italian-born explorer.

The maintenance shop for the police department must not have a grill.

Wasn’t there a pair from Mississippi that did the same thing a few weeks ago?

EDIT: $1,500 worth of stolen meat found during traffic stop in Slidell
