A local two year-old known as Bub
has been accused of absconding from his local Chase branch with what is presumed to be a record 34 Dum-Dums.
The brazen caper was pulled off yesterday
in broad daylight, just before naptime. It was captured on every single video
camera the branch owns, and 13 eyewitnesses have identified him as the
perpetrator, including his own father.
“It’s just senseless,” Martin
Reeves, manager of the branch said. “I mean, who does such a thing? And WHY?”
“Well, there’s a no-brainer,”
Daddy said. “That’s like saying, hey, criminal guy, why did you rob that bank?
Wait…”
“I like Dum-Dums,” Bub said. “The
red ones, in particular. Just exquisite.”
According to Reeves, Bub reached
up from the stroller and slid this note to cashier Eugenia Davis:
“It was polite, yet crude. I felt
threatened,” Davis said. “And we do not negotiate with terrorists. I simply followed
corporate protocol, and put the Dum-Dums into a bag. With the dye pack, of
course.”
“That was a most unpleasant
surprise,” Bub said. “Tasted nothing at all like the red ones.”
Authorities are now deciding
whether to charge Daddy with abetting in the heist, as he was driving the
getaway stroller. Already, Reeves has banned him for life from his
branch.
“But the next closest Chase is
like four blocks away!” Daddy lamented.
Bub’s 5 month-old sister, HP, who
was also along for the ride, is currently being questioned. Though Bub seemed
sure she wouldn’t talk for developmental reasons, she did make this statement
through her lawyer:
“Ahhhhhhhabbabaaaaaaaba.” Ouch.
There goes her slice of the pie.
And in a final, bizarre twist, police
are also talking to a “Chick-Fil-A cow of interest” about writing the note. The
cow had this to say:
“Mooooo.” Troubling. But not as
damning as these pictures, posted to Bub’s Twitter account a mere two hours
before the incident, the message "Going through Dum-Dum withdrawal. C'mon, that's a great pun, bitches! #mysteryflavorisalwaysred."
So much for no corn syrup before the age of 5!
