Police in Iowa have charged a college student with breaking into a McDonald's restaurant after hours, warming up the grill and then making himself a hamburger, local media reported.
Whitley Allen Teslow, 21, turned himself to Cedar Falls police after local television showed surveillance video of a clean-cut burglar breaking into the fast-food outlet and grilling himself some beef patties.
The intruder also fired up the deep fryer to make French fries, before fleeing with a soft drink. No cash was taken from the till.
Teslow, enrolled at a local Lutheran liberal arts college, is charged with burglary, criminal mischief and theft, the Des Moines Register newspaper said on its website.
Iowa television station KWWL, which posted the video on its website (

), said the crime scene was just a few blocks from both the Cedar Falls police station and another McDonald's that is open 24 hours a day.
