The most dangerous thing about Hot Pockets is usually just burning the roof of your mouth. But this guy REALLY raised the bar on that.
A man in Michigan named Daniel Hudson went into a Dollar General earlier this month, and started stuffing Hot Pockets into his pocket.
An employee confronted him, and he didn’t take that well. He started yelling at employees, then he reached into ANOTHER pocket, and pulled out a GUN. (This was apparently an even HOTTER pocket.) (???)
Daniel threatened to blow the employee’s head off, so they let him get away . . . and called the police. They said they knew him, and he was actually a “regular customer.”
The cops tracked Daniel down in the break room at his workplace . . . where he was EATING HOT POCKETS. They arrested him, and found a pistol in his backpack.
Daniel tried telling the police that he didn’t mean to steal the Hot Pockets . . . he just put them in his pocket because he “didn’t see a clerk” at the Dollar General.
He claimed he only got the gun out when he was emptying the Hot Pockets out of his pocket when an employee finally showed up . . . and he didn’t point it at anyone.
The cops asked why he said he was going to blow the employee’s head off, and he admitted that was, quote, “basically a threat” . . . and that he said that because he was upset that they weren’t going to let him purchase the Hot Pockets.
The police didn’t buy any of that. He’s facing theft and gun charges.
