Morelli narrowly missed four workers which executing the brainless stunt.
When he was taken in custody by the police, he claimed that he was tired of Malone’s passing which is why he did what he did. ″The only thing he said was that he didn’t like Malone,″ the officer had informed. ″He just rode in here in a white station wagon and took half the wall off my office, a concrete brick wall, then he ran into a couple of our four-wheel- drive trucks with 70 to 80 gallons of nacho cheese,″ Ted Winters, the commissary manager at that time had claimed, as reported by Associated Press.
