Em… turned themselves in?
After tge police turned photo evidence in.
Actually, this is a huge thing a lot of Somalis do in restaurants in Minnesota. I’ve talked to a number of servers that say they always know it’s going to happen when they show up in large numbers, but there’s nothing they can do to stop it.
Should have received the full amount plus $100 each in-kind labor, picking up trash, etc in return for not pressing charges. Little snots .
you forgot “poop next to the toilet and hope for the best”
Idiot owner. I wouldn’t take that big of an order without pre-approving their credit card or ask to see the cash.
He should had them work the other half off by cleaning the bathroom, floor and windows.
That was a very good act of parenting. I’m glad the owner acknowledged that good act. I have a feeling the parents aren’t going to be as easy on the yutes.
It sure beats the trend of the parents suing the owner for traumatizing their little cherubs.
EC
That would be raciss!
Or something.
From the article I was expecting to see a nice restaurant, not something that looks like Long John Silvers. Thanks to Biden it looks like the price of seafood has shyrocketed.
Crime pays.
I don’t think it is halal either since Muslim dietary restrictions are very similar to Jewish ones .
Surprised to see the absconders were not Amish …it being Detroit and all.
The comments about $400 being a bit much for seafood in an average looking place like that were appropriate. This doesn’t excuse not paying. It is more an indictment of the teens as consumers with poor judgement. But I guess that the price doesn’t matter much if you have no intention to pay.
It’s Dearborn. Their defense for dashing was that call to prayers sounded.
LOL. Good one.
Lobster meat at my local supermarket last week was $37.00 p/lb. That’s in New Hampshire about 50 miles where it come off the boat.
The Google reviews are pretty good. It’s not a fancy place, but it’s not designed to be. Prices seem about normal. 50 bucks for a lobster. 22 for a lobster roll.
It’s clear based on the comments that some FReepers don’t eat out much. The prices at restaurants have increased dramatically. Doesn’t matter that it doesn’t look fancy. And male teenagers eat A LOT. Combine those two things and you get 400 bucks for a place that looks like that pretty easily.
The fact their parents called within 30 minutes of the videos airing and then came to pay and brought the kids to apologize says a lot. Bad poor parents wouldn’t care and bad rich parents might consult a lawyer. These folks just up and did the right thing.
With dubious customers, these restaurants need to ask for credit cards in advance. Same as MacDonald’s.
I pump gasoline. The gas station has my card or cash before I can pump anything
