Giving a whole new meaning to the phrase “eat and run”, a burglar reportedly broke into an Illinois home this weekend taking nothing but a $6 steak that he prepared in the victim’s kitchen.
The homeowner, a Peoria resident, had been away from his home most of the day Saturday. After returning home that night, he noticed a broken window which turned out to be the burglar’s point of entry.
After inspecting his home, the homeowner realized there was nothing of value missing. What was missing, however, was a $6 steal that he left out to thaw that day.
In addition, he found his kitchen in complete disarray with a dirty skillet in the sink, dirty dishes on the counter and paper towels strewn around the room.
Local investigators believe this to be evidence that the burglar cooked the meal in the homeowners home, ate it and then left without disturbing anything else in the home.
While burglary is never a topic of humor around here at HomeInsurance.com, we can’t help but wonder…Where’d the burglar go for dessert?
