À New Haven, dans le Connecticut, un homme s’est introduit dans un restaurant fermé durant le confinement et y a passé quatre jours à se nourrir et à boire sans compter, racontait le Daily Mail vendredi 17 avril.

Louis Ortiz, un homme de 42 ans, a été arrêté par la police mardi 14 avril. Il est soupçonné d’avoir passé quatre jours dans un restaurant fermé. Les autorités l’ont arrêté après que le gérant de l’établissement a signalé la présence d’un homme endormi dans son restaurant.

Les caméras de surveillance ont confirmé que, quatre jours plus tôt, Ortiz s’était bien introduit dans l’établissement. Les images montrent qu’il a principalement consommé de la nourriture, de la bière et quelque 70 bouteilles d’alcool pour un montant total de plusieurs milliers de dollars.

The caller reported finding an unknown man, later identified as Louis Angel Ortiz, asleep in the closed restaurant. Arriving officers located Ortiz nearby on Crown Street and detained him. The 42 year old New Haven man was found in possession of a bottle of the restaurant’s rum.
