Taco Bandita Strikes Again

*Be advised. Content may not be suitable for children.**

According to local authorities, last night at approximately 10:30pm (Central Standard Time), Taco Bell on Sioux Avenue, was robbed at gun point. Senior Director of the state quoted, “It was a sad and horrific night for those employees. I can’t imagine the shame their eyes had to witness,” he said.

When all seemed quiet and Employees were closing “shop” as the franchise lingo is quoted, a witness described the event that unfolded as,”Chilling” and “Freaking weird.” A local resident of Hughes County, was arrested and charged with First Degree Burglary, First Degree kidnapping and Attempted Manslaughter of Beef. That’s right, Beef.

The suspect has been identified as Miss Taylor Hattum, 21 yrs old, of Harold, SD. Miss Hattum, after leaving work last night, decided she wanted some Taco Bell. After speaking with coworkers who decided to remain anonymous, stated, “She seemed agitated and on edge. Like she needed some food, or she was going to hurt someone.” That’s when the events took place soon after. Miss Hattum, left work and was scene driving down Sioux Ave at a radical speed. Witnesses said she drifted into the Taco Bell parking lot, ran for the front door, only to find it was locked. This seemed to agitate her further. She then went back to her vehicle, grabbed a large object and ran towards the door again. That object was later identified by police, as a midget woman, who was kidnapped in Ft Pierre, SD, after a recent Deportation case involving another local resident. (See Channel 23 news for the Mark Abernathy case history).

Taco Bell Employees reported, Miss Hattum threw the midget woman through the front door, breaking the glass, then ran back to her vehicle. One of the employees ran for the phone to call the police, as she returned, walking through the glass, entering the premises, carrying a .45 caliber pistol. Our top reporter was able to gain a statement from the front employee who interacted with Miss Hattum. Here is her terrifying statement below.

“She walked through that door after throwing that migget thing, and I swur I could see a fog as she came in. Like she was a Sith Lord or somethin,” she said. “She yelled at me, saying she knocked and we ignored her. Something about bein tired of all these businesses, closing early and not letting her get some *bleepin* tacos.” “THEN, she pointed the gun at me and I dang near pissed muhself. She said ‘Ya’ll better get me some motha *bleep* tacos, with extra beef, right now, before I put a cap in your knee, then find where you live and steal your dogs,’ and I don’t like to curse cause I go to church an all, so that’s why I said *bleep*.” “She must have been 20 feet away from me, so I ran back to get them tacos, cause I need muh knees, if you know what I mean.” “I was only gone for like 5 seconds, and by the time I turned around, she was standin righhhht in front of me, with these red eyes, breathin heavy and chewin her gum like she was ready to chew muh arm off.” “So I handed her them tacos and such, then she turned and said ‘You boys like Mexico?!?!’ and started shootin the soda machines.” “Next thing I know, she’s runnin out the door, kickin that midget as she goes by, which I thought was wrong cause I love them short people, I don’t discriminate, and she peeled out like she was an Ethiopian chasing a doughnut down a hill.”

Local authorities had responded to the call and began pursuit of Miss Taylor Hattum, leaving Pierre across the bridge into Ft. Pierre at approximately 11:15pm. A car chase was led by Miss Hattum for about 5 minutes and came to a stand off at the Chuckwagon in Ft. Pierre, a local watering hole for the town. As Police approached the door, Miss Hattum walked out with her hands raised, Taco wrappers in each hand and was quoted as being calm and smiling eerily. She had consumed over 15 Tacos in those 5 long minutes, taking her last swallow as authorities placed her into custody.

After being placed into the patrol car, the arresting officer stated Miss Hattum had somehow smuggled a Bud Light beverage into her knickers, and washed those Tacos down in the back seat of the patrol car. The officer was unaware until she had finished the beverage, knocked on the divider glass, asking the officer if he wanted the bottle to shove up his *bleep,* while laughing uncontrollably.

She was then booked into the Hughes County Jail, and placed on a $500,000 bond by a local judge and charged with the three previous Taco Bandita cases, that were unsolved until last night.

Miss Hattum refused to be photographed and is seen in the picture above, laughing at the Hughes County jailer, as she disposed of the Taco evidence. Miss Hattum’s trial is set for Nov 7, 2017.
