Eugene and Jomokenyette were up to their shenanigans a few days  ago when one of them had the brilliant idea to burgle some meat. ( I suspect happy grass was involved.)    That's one conversation I would've loved to hear.

Eugene:  Yo.

Jomokenyette:  Wassup.

Eugene:  Yo.

Jomokenyette:  Huh.

Eugene:  My belly be all kinds of growlin'.

Jomokenyette:  Mane, I be broker than a whippin' stick on Tuesday.  My baby's mama is wrecking me, yo.

*crickets*.....followed by Eugene's brilliant master plan.

Eugene:  Riverfront got some chicken.

Jomokenyette:  Cool.  We ride.

And ride they did.  All up into Riverfront BBQ with their thieving selves.  Busted the lock off the cooler and stole some cases of chicken.  Now.  Did they plan to eat the chicken themselves?  If happy grass was involved, I suspect the answer to that question would be a big fat YES.  Or did they plan to do some trunk poppin' and sell the stuff out at Kitty's Flea Market?

No matter.  The local news showed the surveillance footage on the evening news and in no time at all someone called in with, "There Eugene go!".  He was later apprehended skulking around the Royal Inn.  Authorities are asking for assistance in locating Jomokenyette.

Another barbecue restaurant was the target of burglars early Tuesday morning. Around 4:30, someone broke in the front door of Ronnie's Rib and Chicken Shack on Clark Avenue and also stole food.

Police don't believe the cases are connected.

If I'm lyin', I'm dyin'.

Proof.
