Drunk man mistakes Tabasco for liquor

A drunk man stole a bicycle, threw it through the window of a restaurant and then chugged a bottle of Tabasco believing it to be a bottle of liquor.

In a stunt the Hulk would have been proud of, the 34-year-old man, told authorities he had smashed his way into the Berlin restaurant with a bicycle because he was “thirsty”.

Believed to have mistaken it for a bottle of liquor, the man swigged from a bottle of hot sauce – neither of which would have done much to quench his thirst.

Following his window-smashing, Tabasco-stealing episode, the man told police all he wanted to do was sleep, who were happy to oblige offering him a night in a holding cell.
