(KSL News) A hungry bandit robbed a 7-11 this morning.

The suspect, Thomas Fatty, was milling around the 7-11 at 11 East 1700 South. Employees say they saw Fatty shoplifting the burritos and confronted him. Fatty threatened the employees, saying he had a weapon.

Police say Fatty then threw enough money on the counter for one burrito and took off.

Police caught up to him in an alley behind the 7-11, and asked him to put his hands in the air.

Lt. Dave Cracroft, Salt Lake City Police Dept.: "It's strange that he would decide he needed to have the last bite of his burrito before he complied, when he had two officers pointing pistols at him."
