Using a stolen credit card: risky.

Using a stolen credit card while unleashing a drunken stream of profanity-laced abuse on restaurant employees? That got a 27-year-old Pleasant Grove man a trip to the Utah County Jail.

Orem police say the man remained in jail Friday on suspicion of vehicle burglary,credit card fraud, theft and public intoxication. He apparently didn't like his pancakes — or his server — and made his feelings known before storming out Thursday night.

Alerted by the restaurant, two Orem police officers found the suspect walking a short distance away and arrested him. A subsequent search turned up two credit cards that had been reported stolen during an automobile burglary.
