A woman came in with 15 children and a couple more adults with a birthday party, which included pizza, party favors, balloons and beverages.

But when the bill came for $65.68, the woman allegedly told the manager it was too much money and she would not pay it, the Chicago Tribune reported.

The manager said if the woman refused to pay, police would have to be called. The woman said she didn't care, and the manager could go ahead and call police.

But by the time police arrived, the woman had bailed, along with the other adults and all 15 children.

Skokie police are looking for the woman.
