Bizarre Florida

Guys ask deputy for ride after car burglaries

When two guys found wandering down a Deltona street at 4 in the morning asked a deputy for a ride home, he said sure, as long as he could search them for weapons and contraband first, news-journaloneline.com reports. The two agreed, and the deputy found an odd assortment of items, including cell phones and chargers, Global Positioning Systems, jewelry and even a package of strawberry Pop Tarts. None of that was a weapon or contraband, but they did match items that had been stolen from car in the neighborhood. So the deputy booked them into the Volusia County Jail instead of taking them home.
