Man Arrested for Stealing Plumbing from Restaurants

Plumbing-Thief

We’ve seen dudes who have stolen cash or even food from restaurants, but never plumbing. I guess that changed when a Florida man was accused and arrested for stealing plumbing parts from multiple restaurants throughout a Florida city.

Brian Rinda, a 28-year-old homeless man, was arrested Friday by St. Petersburg police. The man was accused of stealing plumbing parts from restaurants such as Burger King, Bob Evans, Cracker Barrel and more. Rinda would trade the stolen parts at a Pinellas County recycling center. The estimated damage from the theft is about $1,000.

Rinda is currently being held on $20,000 bail at the county jail. He was charged with eight counts of grand theft and one count of petty theft.

Now we’re thinking this might actually become a thing. Lord knows fast food restrooms aren’t frequently checked.
