The tasty, foil-wrapped packages of impending regret* were supposed to go to a charity event for Relay for Life at Lyons Township High School, but a man impersonating a volunteer for the event picked them up from the 'potle and absconded. He's described as a 40-something, balding, thin (not for long! har har) white man, around 5-foot-9, who drives a brown Dodge Charger. [CBS 2]

*Has anyone ever finish a Chipotle burrito and thought "another good idea, done and done"? No. It's always "oof, what was I thinking?"
