Those who couldn't run away And one who did

Now normally having life's great plans gone awry usually makes for painful reading but ever once a while comes some specimen of God's own image to make even these chuckle-able.
While going through some old clips, came across these jams.
There was this dude in Devon who broke into an occupied house, collected booty and ran off with it in a ... give a guess... another try?.. a Wheelbarrow!. The owner alerted by a neighbour called in police who were too busy elsewhere to come quickly. The owner and his kids after waiting for 2 hours for police decided to chase the thief in their car and caught up with the gentleman still tootling along with the booty bearing barrow. I tell ya some men will always overestimate their sprinting speed

In other news, a German, punches in for directions to the nearest loo in his car satnav. The ever dutiful technoslave did what it does best and gave the directions. The rather hassled driver took the directions dutifully and drove the car right as per directions running over the portaloo! I'm impressed buddy by your satnav service, amazing accuracy.

There was this other one, sorry could find the link, where this gentleman from America ( :) ) called in cops to report some contraband stolen from his house! The cops came, took info and managed to even zero in the thief - a dealer this dope once went to get his dope!. Both were last reported to be in the cooler.

In others - This granny got a thief in such a grip the bugger was glad to see a police car come in!

This dude tried to rob a CCTV store`while the cameras were whirring away!!

Wonder how it feels to have a mugger return stuff to you because its too cheap for him to mug?

Once a while though the thieves do do better. In this case they just walked away with the entire surveillance system!

I think I'll start making a series of such chucklethons, the site can do with some extra traffic :)
