The next time your significant other asks you to stop for fast food, think it over before you say no. One man did and his girlfriend ran him over with his own truck. The Hamburglar has nothing on this felonious female.

She struck him two more times, just for good measure.
Naturally, she told the police it was an accident. They weren't buying it, and she is now in county lockup on a $15,000 bond.

At the end of the video clip, Rogers suggests they discuss the idea further over a bottle of wine. Judging from the logic of his statement, I think it's quite possible he's already had one too many.
