A Waffle House employee thought it would be funny to pull an April's Fool prank on her local police. Unfortunately, officers with the Hampton, Virginia police department did not agree.
On April 1, 2013 at approximately 6:00 a.m., Susan Tinker telephoned police to report a robbery at the restaurant. Officers arrived on scene and investigated the purported crime for at least an hour before they became suspicious and realized they had been punked ---minus the camera crew and shows host.
Tinker was arrested and charged with falsely summoning police. If convicted, the 20-year-old prankster faces a $25,000 fine and/or one year in prison.
When contacted for a quote or to speak with Tinker, a person identifying themselves as the Acting manager of the Waffle House told The Black Urban Times that Tinker was no longer employed at the restaurant.
