File this under today’s possibly most bizarre news. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department reported that 24-year-old Mesha Collins broke into Drake’s house on Monday — but all she wanted to do was to raid his fridge.
Police found Collins in a locked room alongside a collection of water bottles and soda cans. There was no evidence that she stole anything besides the beverages, nor did she cause any damage to the house. She was arrested, with a bail set for $100,000. The crime was “entering a residence with intent to steal the victim’s personal property.”
