Dumb Criminals

That’ll Do New Zealand

Monday, August 17th, 2009 • Filed under Theft

It seems that the New Zealand media has labeled this dumb criminal as the world’s dumbest of 2009…and they might just be on to something.

The Press reports that a man caught stealing money from a cash register was caught on four different security cameras and he left his personal information with the clerk.

Awww man, if he also had a bird stuff in his pants, I wouldn’t have gotten five-in-a-row on my “Dumb Criminal Bingo” card.

He walked to the front register to purchase something, you know so people wouldn’t think he’s a criminal.

When the clerk looks away, he reaches into the register and steals a wad of cash as four security cameras are watching his every move including one left in plain sight. Too bad he wasn’t trying to rob a Lenscrafts or he might have gotten away with it.

But before all of this, he actually left his name and phone number with the clerk before he takes the money from the till. I’ve got five-to-one odds the name is misspelled.
