This wouldn't have happened if it was Coca-Cola

A man we assume was already sufficiently over-caffeinated stole an 18-wheeler Pepsi truck late last month.

The soda truck thief, Steven Allen Hart, jumped into the truck and drove off with it while workers were unloading product from the back. The truck’s actual driver had to jump out as Hart made his getaway.
