Colorado Sheriff's Office Roasts Guy Who Tried To Steal A Jet 'Grand Theft Auto'-Style At Airport

Colorado Sheriff's Office Roasts Guy Who Tried To Steal A Jet 'Grand Theft Auto'-Style At Airport

A sheriff's office in Colorado had the internet cackling when the department posted a snarky online recap after a man was arrested for hopping the fence at a local airport and attempting to steal a commercial jet.

In the words of the Douglas Country Sheriff's Office, "video games are not real."


According to WKRN, 31-year-old Sterlin Antonio Love leaped over the south fence of Colorado's Centennial Airport and approached the jet.

Love, who allegedly planned to take the plane all the way to Hawaii, was quickly pushed off the plane by the crew after he tried to get up the stairs.

Unfortunately for Love, a Denver Police Department helicopter was flying around the airport handling a separate situation at the exact same time.

The chopper responded to the scene involving Love, took him into custody, and then handed him over to sheriffs once they arrived.

Love was charged with a felony count of first-degree aggravated motor vehicle theft and misdemeanor second-degree criminal trespassing.

The saga only continued when the Douglas County Sheriff's Office Facebook page became involved.


They couldn't help but find some humor in the failed attempted theft.

"Today officially begins a series that we'd like to call 'Note to Self.' This note is based on an actual incident (this week) where a suspect male breached the secure perimeter to the runway at Centennial Airport in an attempt to steal a jet and fly to Hawaii."
"We've all been at the point where we needed a vacation, but this took it a little far… note to self… video games are not real… stealing a jet will not go well."

People who read the post were in stitches.

A similar commentary was posted on the Douglas County Sheriff's Office Twitter page.

People who saw that were stunned too.



Here's hoping the snarky content will prevent future plane thefts not only in Colorado, but in airports everywhere.

Jackson has long been open about his difficult non-relationship with his father, John Carter.

Back in 1998, Jackson spoke candidly to The Seattle Times about his parents’ divorce, describing it as a turning point in his childhood.

Sandra Lee, known as "Dr. Pimple Popper" on Lifetime, is well-known for her bedside manner, medical knowledge and ability to share her knowledge in an accessible way, and, of course, her unique approach to dermatological care.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Kid Rock Dragged After Offering Massive Discount To His MAGA Festival Due To Abysmal Ticket Sales

Musician Kid Rock has hitched his wagon to president Donald Trump for quite some time now, and it seems he too is in the "find out" stage of that particularly exercise in FAFO.

It seems that when the president you form your entire personality around craters to a catastrophic approval rating even for him, your ship starts to sink too.
