Cook accused of stealing lobster tails in his pants

NEW YORK (AP) - June 17, 2008

The Brooklyn district attorney's office said Tuesday that Raymundo Flores has been arraigned on misdemeanor charges of petit larceny and criminal possession of stolen property.

Co-workers called 911 on Sunday to report a crustacean caper at the walk-in freezer at Junior's Restaurant. Police say they found lobster tails that Flores allegedly had hidden in his pants and in bandages on his legs.

Flores, a Manhattan resident, has been freed without bail. He's due back in court on July 3.

The name of his attorney could not immediately be determined.
