Attempted murder over the last taco?
Attempted murder over the last taco?
Have you ever said, “If you eat that last taco . . . I’ll kill you”? If so, you probably didn’t mean it literally. But this guy did!
A 53-year-old man in West Virginia named Dale Martin was arrested after allegedly trying to kill someone for “eating all the tacos.” (now at this point you’re rolling your eyes – but when the heart wants tacos, the heart wants tacos)
The victim said that Dale saw that all the tacos were gone . . . “became irate” . . . went to a bedroom . . . and came out with a .22 caliber semiautomatic rifle.
The victim saw the gun and ran upstairs . . . and Dale fired several shots after him, hitting the staircase. It doesn’t sound like anyone was hurt.
Dale was charged with attempted murder. He’s being held in jail. Attempted murder over the last taco? Yep.
It’s unclear what kind of tacos they were. They must have been delicious, because it’s hard to imagine anyone shooting someone over Taco Bell.
Anyone ever get CLOSE to being that mad over the last one of any food being eaten?

If you’re looking for more stupid criminal stories – we’ve got them for you:
It isn’t often that people are arrested for breaking INTO jail.
There’s a place in St. Louis called the Medium Security Institution, which used to be a city jail . . . but it was shut down last year, and it’s sat empty ever since.
And last Thursday, three men broke into the place.
It sounds like they were messing around, until they accidentally locked themselves in a jail cell. They couldn’t get out, so they called 911.
The police showed up, “rescued” them from the cell, and then promptly arrested them for trespassing.
The cops are still investigating what the men did, and there could be additional charges of property damage, burglary, and stealing.
