It takes major cojones to dine-and-dash. It takes even more to say a higher power will cover the bill.

According to the Las Cruces Sun-News, 30-year-old Delila Hernandez arrived by bike at a Sonic drive-through in New Mexico. Upon receiving her meal, she told her drive-through attendant that “this one’s on God” and then rode away without paying. (Apparently, the attendant was intimidated by Hernandez and gave her the meal after she came toward him.)

Because she made her getaway on a bike, Hernandez was quickly apprehended by police, arrested, and charged with felony robbery, though the charges may be reduced to a petty misdemeanor. There’s no word on whether God covered her bail.
