Warning: If "Shoplifting" Is On Your Bucket List Cops May Add Getting Arrested To It

Le Facepalm

Most bucket lists include pursuits like skydiving, seeing the Northern Lights, or running with the bulls in Pamplona.

But Tony Strasiser just wanted to steal something from Target.

The 23-year-old Pennsylvania native was arrested yesterday after trying to boost bed sheets and Clif bars from a Target in Clearwater, Florida, according to an arrest affidavit.

Pictured above, Strasiser later returned to Target and apologized for his actions. He reportedly told a Clearwater Police Department officer that he "shoplifted as a thing for his 'bucket list.'" The theft, he added, was a “lapse of good judgment.”
