I just wrote a post on Truly Odd Planet about Dumb Criminals and I included several videos.
I was actually able to find enough dumb criminal videos that I thought I’d share a few over here too.
It’s one thing to be a dumb criminal, but it’s quite another to be a stupid one! Watch as this guy breaks into a pizza parlor by coming in a window. Unfortunately his exit from the store doesn’t go quite as smoothly!
Dumb Criminal – That’s gotta hurt!
Robber is headbanging himself
If there are any future criminals planning a heist reading this, here’s a tip – breaking in through the chimney to commit a robbery is not the way to do it!
Dumb Criminal Caught in Chimney

Here’s another tip for would-be thieves – Don’t rob a security camera store! Duh!
Dumbest Criminals Ever Rob a Security Camera Store
Pulling your shirt over your head like Beavis isn’t going to keep you safe from the 24 working security cameras on sale in the SECURITY CAMERA STORE, you blasted idiots.
Please let me know if you enjoy these kind of stories and if you like watching videos occasionally as I’ll make this a regular feature.

Eric Cunningham, 18, or Orlando Florida isn’t the brightest criminal on the planet. He was arrest and charged with robbing a Hess gas station at gun point in Orlando in April.
He got caught because he forgot to take his gun case with him when he fled the store. Inside the gun case was a receipt for his gun with his name listed on it.
Then we have yet another winner for the dumbest criminal awards … Jazrahel King, 29, was arrested in April in Norwalk Conn. when he tried to trade in the jeep that he’d allegedly stolen from the same Wholesalers of America dealership that he’d appropriated the vehicle from in the first place. He was trying to trade the jeep in for a larger vehicle.
Jazrahel King hadn’t even taken a moment to think about the fact that the dealership would have the cars vin number on record, or the fact that the jeep still had the dealerships temporary plates on it.

How many times have you heard stories about criminals that have done some stupid everyday kind of thing that ends up being what gets them caught?
I know I’ve written enough stories like that here on Odd Planet!
You know the ones that have expired tags on their vehicles or a broken tail light? Basically minor traffic infractions that end up getting them caught for major crimes!
Once such criminal is Larenzo Dixon, 22 of San Diego. He was arrest in March at a downtown transit station during a police crackdown on jaywalkers.
A routine check of the illegal jaywalker turned up a murder warrant on Dixon from Louisiana.
