NEW YORK, June 17 (UPI) -- Police say a cook at a New York restaurant was arrested after coworkers allegedly caught him trying to hide 15 lobster tails in his pants.
Investigators said they found Raymundo Flores, 40, with 15 frozen lobster tails stuffed into his pants and bandages on his legs after two of Flores' coworkers at Junior's Restaurant in the city's Brooklyn borough caught him taking the tails and called 911, the New York Post reported Tuesday.
Workers at the restaurant said several lobster tails, which sell for $29.95 for two, had been noticed missing from the restaurant's freezer recently.
Flores, who was fired from the restaurant, was charged with petit larceny and criminal possession of stolen property.
