A man who allegedly stole a tourist train and took it for a joyride, picking up two bewildered passengers along the way, told police he was celebrating his birthday.
Florida man Jonathan Winslow allegedly stole the Conch Tour Train – a popular tourist attraction since 1958 – on 4 July, which was his 57th birthday.
When police caught up to him, Winslow said he had “borrowed” the tourist train and explained to them that it was his birthday.
After his arrest, police searched him and discovered a meth pipe which he initially claimed was a “weed pipe”.
He has been charged with burglary, grand theft auto, and possession of drug paraphernalia, WPLG Local 10 News reports.
