Did you hear about the kind New Zealand burglar?
He snuck into a home through a window and stole several items such as the property owners laptop, camera and wallet. Unfortunately the couple were unable to make insurance claims on these items for some reason.
A short while after the burglary the couple returned home to find their missing items along with gloves and a basketball that had been purchased using their credit card. The kind hearted burglar had left a note apologizing for robbing them and stated that he’d leave money in their mailbox to pay for the window that he’d broken.
I wish all burglars only borrowed things!
A strange thing happened in Fayetteville N.C. recently. A man charged with robbing a bank - his second bank robbery since 2005 - attempted to show the police his loot but wasn’t able to because he discovered that he’d been robbed.
Joseph Thomas Mulkerin was arrested at a Bragg Boulevard motel. He was charged with common law robbery of $2,179. He’d robbed the Wachovia branch on Green street.
He’d only just been released from prison on January 11th after serving his sentence for robbing the same bank in 2005. That time he’d robbed the bank of $1,098.
When he was captured he took the police to his motel room to show the officers the money but discovered that some was already missing. Police investigated and later charged the motel’s maintenance man David Mims with breaking and entering and stealing some of the already stolen cash.
I don’t know - sounds like we have two dumb criminals in this story. The thief who stupidly robbed the same bank with little success twice, and the motel maintenance man who only stole some of the cash. Come on man, if you’re going to steal it take it all.

I have a feeling that the penguin needs that drink more than the man does, don’t you? I used to love playing tricks like that on people. Doing something like that with an animal is pure genius though!
I think the penguin is smiling. What do you think?

A yonkers home owner discovered an intruder in his home early one morning at 1:30 am. He could hear the man banging the kitchen door and fumbling with the door knob as he attempted to break into the home.
The homeowner opened to door to see who was trying to get in and the intruder barged into his home.
That’s when the homeowner, unsure of the safety of his children and wife upstairs, grabbed the fire extinguisher and sprayed the would be robber with foam. He then hit him over the head with the fire extinguisher and held him down until the police arrived to arrest the burglar.
The intruder was taken to the hospital by the police and treated for minor wounds. He was scheduled to be arraigned in Yonkers City Court on a felony charge of second degree attempted burglary.
