Slidell, Louisiana (The Weekly Vice) - Ronnie Ricks, a 26-year-old New Orleans man, was arrested after asking a police officer for directions while driving in a stolen car.
According to Slidell Police Department spokesman Cpt. Kevin Foltz, Ricks drove up to an officer in line at a McDonald’s drive-thru and asked for directions to a local interstate.
The officer gave him the directions but had to repeat them a few times because Ricks couldn’t understand them.
After Ricks left, the officer had dispatch run the license plate through the system revealing that the car had been stolen earlier that day.
The officer alerted other officers and Ricks was pulled over on the interstate a short time later.
Ricks was charged with possession of stolen things and possession of marijuana. Bond was set at $22,000.

Next time steal a road map.
Perfect example.
Don't you think 'stolen things' should actually be 'stolen property'?
Wtf? What a dumb ass! He should have stuck with the "men don't ask for directions" idea. Why the hell didn't he stop at a gas station? I am guessing this officer was off-duty, in an unmarked car, or something? Or could this guy really be that dumb?
Opps, I’ll bet he regrets tying to be a wise ass now huh.
I can hear the conversation now
Ricks:Hey bro.how do i get to the interstate?
Officer:Take a left at light and your there.
Ricks:HUH (no bro. this is my ride)
officer:Take a left at light and your there.
Ricks:HUH (no man really this is my ride)
Officer:TAKE A LEFT AT LIGHT AND YOUR THERE.
Ricks:Ok no need to yell bro.(This is my ride)
