The Hungry Thief

Alleged bank robber 'may have eaten the evidence'

Police in Ohio say a bank robbery suspect may have eaten the evidence - after he was spotted munching a piece of paper, thought to be the note he used in the robbery, while handcuffed and lying across the bonnet of a police cruiser.

A police video camera captured 35-year-old John Ford of Cleveland grabbing the paper with his mouth as police emptied his pockets.

Ford was arrested following reports of a bank robbery in Streetsboro, just south of Cleveland.

Police say a man walked into the bank and handed a teller a note that demanded money.

Police say they found money in a bag in Ford's car, which fit the description of the bank robber's vehicle, along with a bank dye pack that had exploded.

Ford was held in jail.

………Obviously goy the “munchies”
