Mugger Gets "Mugged" BY Camera

A woman entered one of those instant photo booths to have her picture taken. As she sat down, a man peaked in, saw her purse, grabbed it and ran. Unfortunately for this man, his timing was off just a second or two. When he peaked in to snatch the purse, the camera took his picture.

The woman reported the incident and gave police the picture of the man. Police were able to make a quick arrest. The assailant was a local man who had been arrested many times before for a number of petty crimes. Police recognized his "mug" without difficulty. They knew where he lived and where he normally hung out during the day.

The ladies purse contained less than $2 in change, a pair of under panties and a bra. The purse was actually a work-out bag the lady carried with her when she went to the gym.

Burglary Suspects Put On Tv Performance!

Two Los Angeles men burglarized a Radio Shack. While in the store, they clowned around and recorded their antics on the cam corders they were about to steal. They took great pleasure watching their own performance on the television they were hooked into. Little did they realize, they were also performing in front of a security camera which had been strategically placed among the other cameras. All of their antics and their burglary were recorded on tape. Police had all the evidence they needed to arrest the performing clowns. It did take a little while to find the two men, but arrest were eventually made. They left many clues to their identity during their performance.

Bad Cops! Worse Bandits!

In Mexico, three police officers decided they could make a better living by becoming bandits instead of law enforcement officers. They could command attention and deceive their victims by wearing their police uniforms in the commission of their crimes. They planned their strategy and were ready to pursue their new venture.
For awhile their strategies and criminal acts brought them a degree of success and the life style they were trying to obtain. However, this would all come to an abrupt end. The downfall occurred one fateful day when they stopped a certain car at gun point and demanded money. To the three bandits, this was just another hold-up that could net additional income. What they did not expect was the speed at which their robbery attempt was foiled. Just seconds into the attempted robbery, they were surprised and overpowered by a group of men who were heavily armed and ready to fight.

The men turned out to be bodyguards for the person inside the car. That person was the son of Mexico's president. You can be sure that these bad cops got their wish for a new life style, but not the one they had planned. You can only imagine what kind of sentences these bad cops received and where they are serving their prison terms.

The "Bizarre" Award For Weapon Originality!

The three criminals in the following stories get the "Bizarre Police Chronicles" award for the most original weapon used in the commission of a robbery.

File #1
One man used a hot cup of coffee to rob a convenience store. He actually threw the hot coffee in the clerk's face and then grabbed the the money from the register. He was later arrested, charged and convicted of the robbery. He also pleaded guilty to the assault on the clerk and actually received more jail time for the assault than for the robbery.

File #2
A woman used the spiked heel of a shoe to rob a clothing store. She and the clerk were the only people in the store at the time. Originally, the woman thought she could simply tell the clerk to hand over the contents of the cash draw. After all, the woman was over six feet tall and weighed more than 250 pounds. She was sure that the clerk would be intimidated enough by her size alone. When the clerk refused, the robber grabbed a spiked shoe from a display counter and threatened the clerk with the shoe. The clerk then complied and the robber escaped with several hundred dollars in cash and the spiked shoe.
Police finally caught up with this woman, about a month later, when she was arrested for fighting in a bar. The woman's size was the big tip-off detectives needed to connect this woman to the clothing store robbery. The clerk was able to identify the spiked heel robbery suspect.

File #3
The following story reveals perhaps the most bizarre weapon ever used in a robbery.
A woman in Texas went into a service station. She approached the check-out counter carrying a large purse. She reached into the purse and pulled out a skunk. She then proceeded to aim the rear portion of the skunk at the cashier. She told the cashier to hand over the money or she would cause the skunk to spray her in the face. The cashier quickly obliged. The woman escaped with the cash and skunk tucked away in the handbag.

The cashier called police immediately after the robber left the store. An officer patrolling in the vicinity of the gas station, spotted a woman running across a parking lot. She was carrying a large handbag. The officer caught up with the woman and then cautiously checked out the contents of the handbag. He could see the skunk and the money. The woman was arrested for the robbery.
The skunk turned out to be this woman's pet, it had been descented and would have been incapable of spraying. The woman was held for trial and was later convicted of the robbing the gas station. The skunk was not charged.

Strange And Bizarre Laws!
_________________________

Some of these laws are actually still on the books, while others no longer exist. In any case, I hope you find them amusing and somewhat thought provoking.
_________________________________________________________________

In Scotland it is illegal to be in the possession of a cow while intoxicated.

In Thailand, you must wear underwear in public (under your clothes of course) or you can be arrested. I wonder if they have an undercover underwear patrol to check you out!

If you want to repaint your home in Sweden you must get special permission from the government and also get a painting license.
In Colorado, you can be arrested "riding a horse while intoxicated."

In Singapore, you can receive a huge fine for not flushing a public toilet after using it.

In Pennsylvania, 16 woman living in the same house is considered a brothel. On the other hand, it is legal for as many as 120 men to live together.

In Switzerland, it is illegal to leave your car keys inside an unlocked car.

No fun at Halloween in Virginia. State law prohibits children from trick-or-treating.

Clever Teenager Plots Perfect Robbery!

A teenage boy decided to start his life of crime by robbing a convenience store. He thought he had the perfect plan to assure his success. He would employ a clever technique that was sure to work every time.
Upon entering the store, he had his hands held in the air. He approached the cashier and with a frightened look on his face, told her that a man outside the store forced him, by gun point, to come in the store and get all the money in the cash register. The teenager went on to explain that the man had wired a bomb to the building and would blow-up the building and everyone in it if he didn't have the money within three minutes.
To make his story sound even more believable, he told the cashier that the man was sitting in the blue Mustang. Well, that was the beginning of the end to this teenagers first attempt for a successful robbery. The man in the Mustang was the store's owner and the cashier's husband. The cashier knew the boy was trying to con her out of the money. She reached under the counter, pulled out a gun and placed the boy under citizens arrest. She called police and the teenager was arrested.
The boy was only fourteen years old. He spent six months in a juvenile detention center and is presently assigned to a parole officer.
