Oh! I hate that when we think of ways around our own defenses and are left defending ourselves from our own cleverness with our own cleverness!

No, he's not bright enough to think of (or make) a petrol bomb.

My husband and I like reading about "dumb" criminals. He was telling me about one who was shot and killed; he pulled a gun on and tried to hold up a guy at a petro station only the guy was an off-duty policeman. . . still in uniform!

What floor are you on?

Check out this guy, police are coming to question him about an assault complaint so he tries to escape from police through a window. The problem? He forgets that he’s 23 floors up from the pavement.

BRONX, N.Y. (WCBS) - An astonishing attempted escape from the police in the Bronx Wednesday morning left a suspect dangling from the side of a high-rise, 23 stories above the ground.

It wasn’t a typical sighting for New Yorkers walking outside or living across from the Soundview apartment tower.

“I started to think, ‘What’s wrong? Is he trying to commit suicide or something?’” said Alex Morales, who, along with his wife Patricia witnessed the suspect’s crazy antics.

It gets worse. A neighbor whipped out their video camera and caught the whole thing on tape where the local friendly neighborhood TV station was more than happy to put it on the air.

Correra was taken under arrest without harm and charged with assault, violating an order of protection, hanging around and encouraging bad puns.
