We would expect this kind of behavior from the "Popeye" character Wimpy, but not from any sane, real-life individual. And especially not two of them.
According to the New York Daily News, two Brooklyn men, Danny Maisonet and Kenneth Glover, are suing the New York City Police Department over an incident taking place during Halloween 2012, which ultimately ended in thei![white castle sliders]()
r arrest. Maisonet and Glover were reportedly exiting a cab in Coney Island while carrying a bag of fresh White Castle sliders when they happened upon police officers rounding up suspects of a supermarket looting incident on Neptune Avenue. The officers on the scene then demanded that the two men hand over their bag of burgers.
After Maisonet and Glover refused to hand over their bag, they claim they were each struck by the officers with flashlights and cuffed. But unlike the rest of the suspects at the scene, the two men were not charged with looting, but instead with obstructing government administration and disorderly conduct. While these charges were eventually dropped, the pain of losing their beloved sliders lived on.
While the New York City Law Department has declined to comment on the impending lawsuit, the officer who swore in the complaint against the two men, Angelo Pizzarro, stated they were standing in his way as he struggled with the other looter suspects. But perhaps he just wanted the tasty burgers for himself?
