Alabama man must have a lot of fans
This would be hard to steal with a truck, let alone a four-door sedan . . .
A 60-year-old guy named Michael McClellan got arrested in Mobile, Alabama last week, while trying to steal a set of BLEACHERS from a public park. (???)
There were two sets of metal bleachers sitting next to some tennis courts. He hooked one of them to the trunk of his car, and just dragged it down the street.
To give you an idea of how big they are, there’s a photo of them still attached to his car, and there are five rows of benches. So it looks like they could seat at least 20 people.
This all happened in broad daylight, by the way. A cop pulled Michael over after spotting his car dragging the bleachers around 12:20 in the afternoon. He’d made it about a mile-and-a-half.
It’s not clear why he wanted the bleachers or where he was taking them. He’s facing charges for first-degree theft.
