DALLAS, Texas (AP) -- A little candy can add up to a rainbow of trouble.
A man caught removing tires from a truck has been charged with stealing the tractor-trailer containing $250,000 worth of Skittles, police said.
Seven pallets of the 28 in the truck are still missing, authorities said. Alan Chavez, 22, has been charged with first-degree felony theft. It was unclear Monday whether he had a lawyer.
Chavez said he had paid someone else $500 for the truck's rims and tires, police said. The truck has an estimated value of $85,000, and the trailer's value is $30,000.

Thats why I was short on Skittles this week.



Several yrs ago I ran with a friend for a week. He had one of those weeks from hell. Several blow outs from his worn out tires, injector leak dumping fuel into the crankcase etc etc.

On friday he tells me on the CB "I'm about to have a really ###### day"
I had to laugh and said "how do you figure" not knowing what to expect. His reply was "I'm about to run out of Skittles"
It made me laugh.
