It's So Cold In the "D"

"T.D." McCoy


A Michigan man on a dinner date not only fled the restaurant sticking his female companion with the check, he even stole her car, according to police.

Terrance Dejuan McCoy, 23, and an unidentified woman had dinner at a Buffalo Beef and Wangs in the Detroit suburb of Ferndale on April 24. The woman, who knew McCoy only as "Chris," had met him at a Detroit casino the week before. When the check came, McCoy claimed he had left his wallet in the woman's 2000 Chevrolet Impala. He then asked to borrow her car keys - and never came back. The woman told police she also had a backpack with $300 cash inside the car, along with a laptop computer, iPod and a digital camera.

It wasn't hard for cops to track McCoy down. According to the Daily Tribune of Royal Oak, he was identified by a photo and a phone number he had sent to the woman's cell phone. McCoy was charged with unlawfully taking the car, a felony that could get him up to five years in jail if convicted. His trial is set to begin this Thursday.

It's a safe bet there won't be a second date.

  1. She is a dumbass for hooking up with a guy in a casino who had no car and obviously not money/job. The police should have laughed at her.
