The suspect allegedly sat down next to the officer and tried to start a conversation, WUSA9 reported.

She then reached down and took a chip – known as a French fry in the US – from him as he was eating. The police officer warned her to stop, but she took another.

According to Metro UK, the officer repeated his demand that she cease taking his chips, warning her that she was engaging in theft and faced immediate arrest.
