Toilet bowl lid stolen from Devils Lake Dairy Queen
Grand Forks Herald ^ | March 3, 2015 | Adam Ladwig

An unusual theft in Devils Lake has police and employees at a local business chuckling. The local Dairy Queen reported a toilet bowl cover stolen from a bathroom Monday night.

Police say the theft happened shortly after 9 p.m., when the store typically closes.

A group of juveniles was sitting near the bathroom. One employee noticed a young male holding something under a sweatshirt or coat. The boy told the employee it was a binder.

A police detective declined to comment about the unusual theft on camera, saying she wouldn't be able to do so with a straight face.

I think this story starts something like this:

“Hey, John! I dare you to...”

In other bathroom news the local police station bathroom has had its toilet stolen. Police so far have nothing to go on.

I dunno. I usually get paid to handle toilet seats.

Nice shoving a filthy seat under your shirt.

I'd get it one piece at a time
And it wouldn't cost me a dime
You'll know it's me when I come through your town
I'm gonna ride around in style
I'm gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause I'll have the only one there is a round.

I graduated from High School in North Dakota. Our local police station had a city map with two colors of pins for incident locations. One color was for fender benders, the other for bicycle thefts. I think we counted four in that category.

Sadly, not long after, there were three grizzly murders in or near our town within the space of two years. It resulted in the book Prairie Murders, for which even used copied command over $20 on Amazon.

This kid must be a real genius, probably learned relative values in public school. What next, I can only imagine his career path.

I take it this won’t be a new Blizzard flavor.

“Hi. I’d like a medium toilet lid cover blizzard and could you put some peanuts on top?”
