Truck driver dumps out 1,000 bushels of corn after getting fired by text

ODELL, NEBRASKA — A Pennsylvania trucker got in trouble with the law after his attempt at revenge completely backfired. br br The Lincoln Journal Star reports that Darren Walp had been texting his boss while driving a truckload of corn to Hanover, Kansas last August. br br While on a stretch of Nebraska road, the 36-year-old got a text message saying he’d been fired. br br Fuming, he abruptly stopped the truck and opened the grain trailer’s bottom hatch doors to let more than $3,000 worth of corn slowly spill out. br br Walp then got in the truck and took off, letting the rest of the corn — nearly 1,000 bushels — pour out onto the highway for a quarter of a mile. br br Authorities weren’t happy about the mess, which reportedly cost $500 to clean up. Walp has been arrested and is facing felony criminal mischief and depositing materials on a roadway.
