A former patient was arrested after deputies say he stole an ambulance from a psychiatric hospital in north Harris County, then used it to run errands, including a stop at KFC. The Harris County Sheriff's Office said it was called around 2:30 a.m. Thursday about a man who stole an ambulance from a hospital on Cali Drive.
Deputies say the ambulance was left running outside the hospital.
Authorities told ABC13 that 56-year-old Carlton Andrews got in and took off, driving to KFC and other places to get something to eat and to get cigarettes before stopping at a gas station on Ella and Richey.

KFC, cigarettes, returned the ambulance. I guess I’m not seeing the problem here.

It must be nice to be insane...
No one asks you to explain.

The headline made it sound like he stole the ambulance to go to KFC to get cigarettes. WTF? He took off to do several things after reading a little. Reporters suck and write worse.

I had always assumed if I see a scruffy person in pajama pants mid-day buying cigs, that they just rolled out of bed.
Now I’m gonna have to look for a poorly-parked ambulance...

Hey - a bucket of original recipe and a pack of Chesterfields, good to go.
Maybe an RC Cola and a Moonpie for dessert while we're at it.

In "Junk Food Junkie", the Kentucky Fried Chicken and the Moon Pie were included, but the soda was "Dr. Pepper" rather than RC. Since this is Texas, I think he should go with the Dr. Pepper.

Sounds like he needs to be a RETURNING patient.
