Mcdonalds would file a police report and the theif would probably be featured on worlds dummest criminals.

Why would anyone do something stupid like that? Of what use is a credit card machine? It’s not like they can do anything with it.

Besides, the theft was most likely caught on the McDonalds security cameras.

What would happen is the police will come knocking on the thief’s door and bring him down to the station for a little talk. After that … it depends on the thief’s age and his past history.

Ronald McDonald would send his friend the Hamburgler to steal it back. If that didn’t work, the criminal might receive a visit from Grimace.

The only part that could be stolen is the verifone card reader. The little box sitting on the counter where you swipe your card through.

I imagine that they have a spare sitting around and then I would imagine that they will check their video surveilance to see which one of their boneheaded employees pulled this prank.
