The Post has it that a prep cook at Junior’s restaurant in Brooklyn is in hot water after a co-worker spotted him stuffing 15 lobster tails down his pants and into bandages around his legs. In recent weeks, Junior’s staff had noticed that the restaurant’s supply of lobster tails had inexplicably dipped. So when 40-year-old Raymundo Flores was observed in a walk-in freezer bulking up his trousers with crustaceans, coworkers called 911.
Police charged Flores with petit larceny and criminal possession of stolen property. And because these weren’t live lobsters in his pants, he’ll have a hard time convincing authorities that he was just trying to liberate the animals in the spirit of sodden animal rights activist Edward Furlong. Flores can also kiss his job goodbye; Junior’s terminated him immediately. It’s not clear whether the lobster tails ever made it to the dining room.





Is that a lobster tail in your pants or are you just happy to see me.
Petit larceny is a new show on Fox this summer.
hmmm- I guess you can go with petty or petit. Although I would think pants full of lobster tails would be more than a petit sum.
Ok, I'll say it...
Looks like the lobster thief got pinched.
I hope they didn't make it to the dining room, considering where they'd been.
not worth it.
Are there actually people out there who go to Junior's and order lobster?

You ain't been there at midnight on a Saturday, bro!
Bling and lobster go well.
JMH, yes. They are the same sort of people who go for Red Lobster or Olive Garden as a big night on the town.
Stuffed 'em in his pants, did he? Here's hoping he didn't give the lobsters crabs.
Will they ever learn? You always keep your cooks away from the fresh ingredients.
who goes to junior's and orders lobster?
i remember the food being crappy but the napkins were cloth.
Silly man. Don't stuff food down your pants. That's what cargo pants are for. And most of them are so baggy that they'd never notice a few lobster tails in your pockets.
He's in hot water too? Isn't that how lobsters usually meet their demise?
#11- a hearty LOL
