Chewbacca arrested for vending machine thefts

[sprite75]

Yeah, and of course.  In Florida

-A former employee of a Florida vending machine company dressed up in a Chewbacca costume and stole money from a pair of kiosks he previously maintained, according to cops who arrested the "Star Wars" devotee for grand theft.

According to investigators, Darren Pickrem, 56, took a total of $623 from a pair of vending machines operated by Florida Fresh Vending. The heist occurred late last Sunday at an office in Largo and was captured by a security camera.

"The defendant," a felony complaint states, "was observed on video entering the above location in a 'Chewbacca' costume."

Pickrem was "terminated" by the vending company two months ago, cops report. And while he knew enough to wear a disguise, Pickrem inexplicably allowed cameras to get a shot of his face as he entered the building containing the vending machines.
