You'd think that just working at a Wendy's restaurant would be difficult for Ronald MacDonald.

Now, 22-year-old MacDonald – no relation to Ronald McDonald, the clown – has been charged with stealing money from a safe at a Wendy's restaurant location in New Hampshire.

Police said the restaurant manager called police early Monday, and said he found MacDonald and another employee taking money from the safe at about 1:30 a.m.

MacDonald and Steve Lemay, 20, both of Manchester, N.H., were detained at the store until police arrived.
