Hot Springs Cops Nab Beer Thief in Golf Cart

A 24-year-old Kentucky man (with a name that leads me to believe he may not be a Kentucky native; I don’t know, I just get this feeling) is in police custody after he allegedly drove a golf cart through a storefront to steal beer:

Police arrested 24-year-old Alejandro Cortez-Sanchez of Florence, Ky., after he allegedly crashed into the El Alamo Store on Central Avenue on Christmas Day. A police report says officers responded to a burglary call and found the store’s front doors broken in.The officers spotted a suspect motoring away in a golf cart and gave chase. The suspect began throwing beer bottles at the police cruisers as they followed for several blocks.

The remaining beer was returned to the store owner. And if you’re in the market for a new golf cart, you might check out the next Hot Springs Police Auction.
