Naples, Florida – After leaving a McDonald’s without paying for a cup of soda, Mark Abaire, 52, is facing a felony theft charge. Abaire walked into the restaurant and asked the employee at the counter if he could have a cup for water. When he was given one, he went to the soda fountain and filled it with soda instead, then left to sit outside. Due to previous petty theft convictions, what would have been a misdemeanor petty theft charge was escalated to a felony, which could earn Abaire up to five years in jail and a $5,000 fine.
