Terming him as ‘Hamburglar’, the police department wrote, “On Sunday morning a local pizza shop was broken into. This guy had the audacity to not only break in, but also steal their tablets and cash! Before he stole their delivery car to leave, he couldn’t resist his craving and helped himself to making a pizza pie! FPD identified, located and arrested him”. In the end the department made a sarcastic remark by saying that the jail doesn’t serve his favorite meal. In the video, Sanchez can be seen flattening the dough for his pizza base.
