25-year-old Jorge Ponce was arrested last Monday evening for "burglary of a motor vehicle and credit card abuse."

How did the police catch him in the act?  Well they found Ponce in the location the car was stolen: a Whataburger parking lot.


Apparently, according to KXAN, Ponce broke into the car, then stole a credit card, then purchased food with it, and after enjoying his meal passed out in the vehicle, which was still parked at the Whataburger!

We love the man's priorities here: first, steal a car, but before making a clean getaway stop for some Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits!
