A Bradenton woman ordered and feasted on a steak dinner and chocolate cake, but when the bill came she refused to pay, stating she had no money, according to the Manatee County Sheriff's Office.
Ana Bulovic, 28, decided to treat herself at Codys Roadhouse in Bradenton Monday afternoon, even though she knew she didnt have any money to pay the bill, according to an arrest report.
The feast, which totaled $43.58, ended with her getting arrested and charged with petit theft. She is being held at the Manatee County jail on a $120 bond.
When Bulovic was presented her tab at about 4:30 p.m. Monday, staff at Codys told deputies she refused to pay, so the sheriffs office was called, the report states. When a deputy arrived, the restaurant manager said they wanted to press charges if she did not pay for the meal.
The deputy approached Bulovic as she was eating her chocolate cake, he reported, and asked if she had any money for the food.
Ana told me the bill was higher than she expected, and when I asked how much money she had, she informed me zero, the deputy wrote in his arrest report.
The deputy asked why she had ordered the food if she knew she didnt have any money, and Bulovic told him just to give her a fine and she would leave. But the deputy told her if she didnt pay she was going to be arrested, to which she responded, Lets go.
Buovic was taken to jail.

Wish I could have had your grandfather for a pharmacist. There have been times I’ve left the pharmacy empty handed (blinking back tears) because I couldn’t afford the medication for my son (chronic condition). His new doc showed me how to order meds from Canada-wow! What a difference. I was blinking back happy tears that day :).
