Florida Doctor Calls Local Police On Missing Pie
A Florida chiropractor Kent Messer was looking forward to a fantastic day at work until it was immediately foiled for him.
Messer works for Suncoast Injury Centers, located in Fort Myers, Florida. Kent was looking forward to eating a slice of homemade coconut pie. But when he got to work and opened the refrigerator, it was gone! Not only was his pie gone, a bunch of other office stuff were taken as well.
What Happened Exactly?
Messer told his local TV station, NBC-2 News, “I had very simple goals.” His goals were to show up for work, eat a slice of pie, and go on with his day. He didn’t even have a chance to get past the second goal. The pies container was still in the refrigerator but only crumbs remained in it.
This Is Now A Criminal Case
Aside from the pie his wife had made, which they put a value of $5 on it, other items from the business were stolen. Once Kent realized his pie was missing, he checked around and realized a case they use to transport items was missing. That had a value of about $125. But what was probably most shocking for them was a bunch of medical supplies that they use regularly was also missing. They’re saying about $1,500 worth of supplies were missing.
The thieves seemed to know what they were doing. The building had an emergency exit door that’s located in one of their examination rooms. That’s where the thieves entered from. Outside of the building that door had pry marks.
Because of the amount of things stolen and the value on them combined, this has become a criminal case and is currently being investigated. So far no one has been caught. If they are in fact caught, they are looking at charges of burglary of an unoccupied dwelling, which is considered a second-degree felony.
