Woman reports theft of 20 Fruit Roll-Ups

Two teenagers broke into a Cabin Lane Drive home and ate several Fruit Roll-Ups, before the homeowner caught them lounging around her house at 11:30 p.m. Saturday, according to an Athens-Clarke police report.

One of the teens told the woman he was friends with her niece and that she let them in. But after the teens left, the woman noticed a broken kitchen window and 20 missing Fruit Roll-Ups. The teens also took a jug of fruit juice and several pieces of jewelry, police said.

The pair split up upon leaving, but police later found them in the neighborhood and were able to return nine of the Fruit Roll-Ups to the woman. Police also found a bag of marijuana on one of the teens, according to the report.

So let me get this straight. They stole jewelry and had drugs on them, but the part that makes the headlines is the STOLEN FRUIT ROLL-UPS?

The jewelry gets a teeny mention halfway through the article and the drugs aren't even mentioned until the end of the article, but the STOLEN FRUIT ROLL-UPS get a headline.

Thank you, Athens Clarke County. Glad to know the cops are doing their job and keeping those pesky fruit roll-up thieves off the streets. Don't let them off. Next time, they might steal an actual piece of fruit, like a banana or something.

  1. Yeah... they didn't say if anything else wa sreturned. There was a slight mention of some jewelry taken. I'd think that would be what the owner really wanted back. Then again, they did file a police report on the missing fruit roll-ups...

  2. Even the jug of fruit juice got a mention before the jewelry LMAO

    She had her priorities. Fruit roll-ups first, jewelry second.
