SC Cops Looking for Inept Golf Cart Thief

If you live in the Spartanburg, SC area, smoke cigarettes, drink a lot of beer and don’t know how to drive a golf cart up a hill . . . the police would like to have a word with you.

On the negative side, none of the stolen golf carts in this story ended up in a body of water (the arch-enemy of golf carts) but it sure sounds like one might have with a few more beers.

Here’s more on the story from WYFF:

Deputies said that the attempted theft took place overnight Saturday at The Country Club of Spartanburg. Three gold carts were taken from an equipment storage area by someone who then tried to drive them, one at a time, across a very steep area, deputies said.

Deputies said the first golf cart taken became stuck against a tree on the side of a ravine. The second golf cart was found tipped over on its side on the opposite side of the ravine, with the third overturned nearby.

Investigators said they found empty beer cans and a cigarette butt near the golf carts.
