A Man is Tased for Stealing Justin Bieber Valentines From Target

2/18/2013

So this happened last week, but it just hit the news cycle this weekend, and it was TOO GOOD for us not to tell you about.  Back on the 12th, 50-year-old Michael Pete Harding of South Grafton, Massachusetts was busted shoplifting a shopping cart's worth of stuff from a Target. And what was the highlight of the stuff he stole?

Several packages of JUSTIN BIEBER VALENTINES.

We have no idea why a 50-year-old man needs one Justin Bieber valentine, let alone dozens, but the heart wants what it wants.  Michael also shoplifted several cases of Red Bull, some containers of Tide, and some groceries.

Store security spotted him running through the parking lot with his cart full of stolen merchandise, and called the cops. An officer ended up in a foot race with Michael, which ended when the cop TASED him.  Michael was arrested for larceny and resisting arrest.
