Man Destroys Alberstons Self Check Out Computer

Technology can be frustrating but this guy really took it to a whole new level. Cops say a man buying a late night snack at Albertsons on Gage Boulevard in Richland busted a self check out counter. Apparently he was trying to pay for his burrito, got upset and punched the computer screen. He destroyed it. This little outburst is a costly one. Alberstons says the damage is between $40,000 and $80,000. Cops arrested and booked him into Benton County Jail for malicious mischief.
