    Short version: Fat guy tries to rob a bar, but gets stuck in a window on his way out and ends up dying. D'oh.

    His mother worked at the bar?

    The bar closed at 8 p.m. on a weekend?

    I'm not sure jgmacg could put up as many red flags on this one.

    A coworker of mine grew up in Ohio. I LOVE Ohio stories. This one is already making the rounds.

    Ah, an instant classic from my old stomping grounds. Not familiar with that bar, but I can definitely see that happening in Ashtabula or (insert name of northeastern Ohio or western Pennsylvania city here).

    Sounds like something that could've happened to Matt Foley.

    Did the perp drive to the bar to rob it, or did he leave his van parked down by the river?
