-

He just wanted a burger to go along with his coke. Unfortunat­ely for one 20-year-old suspect, the burger joint was closed and it turned out the coke was no cola. Police in Smiths Falls said they were called to a local restaurant after closing time Oct. 16 to deal with an intoxicate­d man who was “insisting on getting a hamburger from the employee.” The man was still “demanding” grub even after police arrived, and refusing to leave. Police first arrested him for public intoxicati­on, then allegedly found he was carrying two grams of cocaine. Evan Freeman, 20, of Brockville was held in custody.
