Take me to Jail Now! I’m starving!

While most theives steal car for money, this Chinese old man had a different purpose. He was hoping to get caught so he can spend the Lunar New Year eve in jail where dinner is freely provided.

Last week, a 70 year-old man from

NanChang city, carrying lock-picking tools into a school parking lot and started picking a car lock right in front of a security guard.

He was rather happy being caught and even told the security guard to hurry up and take him to jail.

“Through my whole life, I had the best time in jail,” the old man confesses. “I was homeless and picking trash for a living after I got out. If I go back to jail, at least I’ll get food in there.”
