Florida Woman Tries To Eat Counterfeit Cash During Arrest

Author

A Florida woman was arrested after she was allegedly caught using counterfeit money at Walmart. After she was caught with the fake money she tried to eat the counterfeit cash while being detained by police. The woman named Zipporah Abraham, 38, is now behind bars and charged with several things including third-degree grand theft and uttering forged bills.

How Did She Eat The Counterfeit Cash:

According to Fox35Orlando, a Walmart loss prevention officer was notified that Abraham was using fake money to pay for items. Next, they inspected the store’s surveillance footage, they realized Abraham had been doing this several times. While Abraham’s was being arrested that’s when she tried to eat the counterfeit cash. On the security footage she was seen hiding several products. Then she would walk back and forth, waiting for the perfect opportunity to leave the store with the stolen items.

On camera, you can see her try to walk out of the store with the storage bin holding the items. But this time she was was stopped by the loss prevention officer. Abraham was taken to the back office for an investigation. They opened up the storage bin and discovered all the unpaid item totaling $864.77. Finally, they asked her to take off her jewelry and that’s when she put $200 worth of counterfeit bills in her mouth! She tried to eat all her counterfeit cash. She was taken into custody and remains on $10,000 bond. It’s crazy that she tried to eat all the fake money she had on her at the time.

Here Is The Most Roach-Infested City In Florida

When it comes to roaches, I like calling them Palmetto bugs. Sounds classier right? If you live in Florida you have seen many roaches, but what city is the most infested? I live in St. Petersburg and it did not make this list. “Here is the most roach-infested city in Florida.”  Can you guess the city? You will see below.

If you have roaches does it mean your home is dirty?

According to the National Pesticide Information Center, “Finding roaches is not a sign that your house is dirty. Even if you clean regularly and maintain a tidy home, cockroaches can usually find food and water without much trouble. This allows them to thrive in many environments.”

Roaches have been on this earth for over 200 years.  The common cockroach can survive forces up to 900 times greater than its own body weight. Roaches can also squeeze through openings. On top of all of this their reproduction abilities, are very quick. These are all the reasons roaches are hard to eliminate.  Roach infestations are most common in summer months because they thrive in hot temperatures! 

Funny Roach story

I once went to a guy’s house and woke up to a roach in my wig. I felt so dirty! He apologized but at that point, I was already disgusted. His house was actually not dirty, so I don’t know why there was a roach in my wig.

Have you ever been in a situation like this? Is a person having roaches in their home a deal breaker? I want to hear your stories! Feel free to email me Babs@wild941.com. As you read above, someone having roaches in their home doesn’t necessarily mean their house is dirty.
