Stupid Criminal: A Man Assaulted Someone with a Hot Pocket

You don’t often think of Hot Pockets as a dangerous weapon, other than them burning the roof of your mouth.  But that didn’t stop THIS man.

Police in the Boston area are looking for a guy who went to a corner market earlier this month, grabbed a Hot Pocket from the fridge, and then HURLED IT at the clerk.  (???)

The guy apparently got upset because the clerk asked to see his I.D. before selling him a tobacco product.

Another customer witnessed the Hot Pocket assault, and told the assailant to CHILL OUT.  But then they started fighting, and the Hot Pocket guy pulled out a pocket knife and threatened the other customer with it.

They were able to get the bad guy out of the market, lock the doors, and call the police.  No one was injured, by the Hot Pocket OR the pocket knife.  As far as we know, the guy is still on the run.
