Stealing Traffic Cones

One story I stumbled upon was where a couple of drunk people jumped out of the car (the driver wasn’t drinking, lucky for him) and stole some traffic cones and brought them back into the car.  The sober driver tried to tell them to put the cones down before they got in, but they wouldn’t budge.  Long story short, a cop saw them and charged two of them with a Class “C” misdemeanor.  Next time you reach for that traffic cone think again!
