Say hello to John A. Gampa from Cape Coral, Florida.

John robbed a Cape Coral McDonald's last week and could be a perfect candidate for that TV show, "I almost got away with it".

I bet he thought he was pretty smart. According to the first report, he broke in with a screwdriver, wiped down everything he touched and put on gloves. He searched cabinets and the safe and even deactivated the cameras.

There's no mention if he actually got anything, but it seems like a busted attempt.

Apparently John was in the mood for some fast food and used the drive-thru at the same McDonald’s to get a bite to eat. The employees became suspicious when John brought up the recent burglary and thought he looked like the guy. They were correct.

They noted his license plate number and vehicle description which led officers to John A. Gampa who officers arrested at his Cape Coral home after a brief pursuit where he was taken down with a taser gun.

John won't be enjoying any McDonalds anytime soon as police say he is completing probation for another robbery case and is now charged with Burglary and Resisting an Officer without violence.
