Bandit Shoots Own Foot, Track Leads Home

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (Reuters) - A Brazilian crook shot himself in the foot while trying to burglarize a bar, then left a trail of blood that led police straight to his home, police said on Thursday.

Police in the town of Petropolis in the mountains near Rio de Janeiro said they had arrested Carlos Henrique Auad, 29, on Wednesday at his home just about a hundred yards from the bar.

Police said Auad had broken into the bar several days earlier and had stolen a television set. He broke into the bar through the roof again on Tuesday night, but fell down and accidentally shot himself in the right foot, police said.

He left without stealing anything and went straight home failing to notice the blood track in the darkness.

A few years ago a check out person at a local office supply store stole my DH's credit card number off the slip, gave it to her boyfriend, who then proceeded to order tons of things by mail and off the internet which he had DELIVERED TO HIS HOUSE!!!!!!!!

I think we can put that into the annals of "stupid crooks", don't you??

Here's another one.

A woman down the street from us hit our neighbor's truck and fled the scene. The police followed the trail of antifreeze to her home where they found her damaged car and her intoxicated self.
