    Reminds me of the lady that stole my wifes credit card, we found out what time she used it at Walmart and went and had security pull the tapes.

    If your going to use a stolen card you better look out for the camera's.

    Don't forget about the story of the guy who stole a credit card to buy a big screen TV, and also purchased the extended warranty...with his home address and phone number.

    that reminds me of a story I once heard that a man laminated his drivers license and used it to jimmy open a door. He broke in, but forgot his liscense and the cops easily tracked him down

    I got robbed once making a night deposit, I chased him down....he was so nervous before he robbed me he locked his keys in his car.

    I don't think he expecected me to run him down for a mile and a half either.

    He was fast (actually played professional basketball in France for awhile.) but I ran track in High School, I was a distance runner.

    I found that when I worked with a Police Department that I was pretty good at foot pursuits, They may get away from me in the beginning, but as long as I could still see them I could eventually run them down....the best part was they were always to tired to fight after a nice long run.

    LOL, all of this reminds me of something a local radio station used to do when I was in high school. It was a segment titled "Crooks are stupid". Every morning there was another story of a stupid thief. I'm not quite sure I remember who did it, it was 20 years ago. I think it was a Don and Mike Morning Zoo segment when they were on WAVA.

    Later, Jay

    Of course these days, I get pooped just getting out of bed...no way I would want to chase one of those little punks down....I probably get in trouble for firing a few "warning" shots.
