Crustacean crime: Lobsters pinched from restaurant

The Baltimore Sun

The owner of Real Fish and Lobster, a seafood eatery in Orlando, has to be steamed after a burglar broke into the restaurant recently and stole 70 live lobsters and other assorted seafood valued at about $2,000.

No suspect has been identified, but police should be on the lookout for someone who smells faintly of melted butter and owns a huge aquarium.

The restaurant operator told authorities that security cameras were not working at the time of the burglary, which raises an interesting question: What do you call a surveillance camera in a seafood restaurant ... a clam-corder?
