A Florida woman steals something odd. Can you guess what it is? We have talked about so many thefts that it could literally be anything. Well, enough with the games. A Florida woman stole a motorized cart from Publix and drove it down the street.

According to GulfCoastNews, "A woman was arrested Monday after being accused of stealing a motorized Publix shopping cart and driving it down Airport Road in Punta Gorda. According to the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office, deputies responded to a Publix store located on Tamiami Trail in Punta Gorda around 10:12 a.m. Deputies say they talked to the store manager, who told them that a woman had come to the store, stolen a motorized shopping cart and was seen driving it south on Tamiami Trail from Airport Road. Deputies tracked the woman, identified as Robin Zick, 42, of Punta Gorda, to a Circle K gas station on South Tamiami Trail, almost a mile from the Publix. Deputies questioned Zick, who told them that she had taken the motorized shopping cart to go to a medical appointment she had. She told deputies she planned on driving the cart to her appointment and then bringing it back to the Publix."

Places are very serious about their shopping cart thefts. Some have tags in them that send out a signal if they have gone beyond the parking lot. Understandably, as a business you don't want to lose your property.

It's a pretty wild choice of transportation. We'll make the assumption that she walked, rideshared or took a bus to the Publix because if she had a car, she'd drive that to the appointment.

You never know what people are going to do. It seems that the world is just becoming crazier and crazier. Or, maybe we are just hearing about it more often!
