Real Men of Genius

Two twenty-somethings in Iowa decided to rob an apartment. Problem was, they didn't have masks, so they did the next best thing: use permanent markers. The police had no problem finding the suspects.

Cops nab 'permanent marker' burglary suspects

Quote:
CARROLL, Iowa -- Police had no trouble identifying two men accused of trying to break into a Carroll apartment.

Police were responding to a call about an attempted burglary when they pulled over a car matching the alleged suspects' vehicle. Inside the car, officers found two men with their faces blackened with permanent marker.

Police said the caller described two men with painted faces attempting to break into an apartment Friday night before driving off.

Matthew McNelly, 23, and Joey Miller, 20, were arrested at gunpoint after officers were told they might be armed. Neither man had a weapon.

McNelly and Miller were each charged with attempted second-degree burglary. Both men were released after posting bond.

Attorneys for the men declined comment Tuesday.

Clearly they were armed with their wits!

a guy with a sharpie disguise tried to rob the store across the street from me saying he had a bomb in a paper bag . someone told me about it as it was going on so I walked over to confront the guy. I stood in front of him as he walked across the parking lot blocking his way but when I saw his disguise, I started laughing so hard I couldn't do anything. followed him around the corner and got his plate number though. he was arrested minutes later. still laugh about that everytime I think about it.
