A man was caught releasing his pet rat in a restaurant to get a free meal
A MAN RELEASED his pet rat in a restaurant on Valentine’s Day – all so he wouldn’t have to pay £7.25 for his meal.
Christopher Baker has pleaded guilty to fraud by false representation after the incident at Borneo Bistro in Sunderland earlier this year.
Baker was captured on CCTV fumbling in his pockets, before surreptitiously dropping something to the floor and jumping up in mock-horror.
