No Free Rides, Not Even to Jail

Dumb: Committing a burglary. Dumber: Committing a burglary and taking a cab from the scene. Dumberer: Committing a burglary, taking a cab from the scene and then offering to trade the stuff you stole as cab fare.
That’s just what happened, according to the Toledo Blade.
The guy broke into a restaurant, stole hundreds of dollars worth of stuff and then hailed a cab, probably because he left his bus pass at home.
The driver didn’t think much of it at first. He took him to his destination, then he asked him to take him to an ATM because he didn’t have the cash to pay. He only had $9 in his account. I’ll bet he lost most of it when he invested in Enron in ’05.
Then the guy offers the driver part of his loot to pay for the fare, so the cabbie calls the cops.

Thank God the cab was being driven by somebody who’s actually smart!
