My Wife, Daughter and I went to Applebees last night for dinner, oh around 6pm or so. Last night, there's breaking news on an armed robbery at Applebees around 9pm. Naturally, I waited for more info. Nobody hurt thank goodness.

So today, just received a breaking news alert: Man arrested for robbery at Applebee's:

29yo guy went to police station today with a friend on an unrelated issue.......police recognized him as suspect from the robbery and arrested him......


REALLY?????

Are you kidding me??

I know you've go to be pretty stupid to do it in the first place....but really? Then you waltz into the station with a buddy when the force is out looking for you?

Got less than $500 from the heist, must have been looking for a winter home and figured a cell would work nicely. Sheesh!

I guess some people want to get caught :-)

Pretty stupid though. Less than $500, no surprise but what the hell did he think he would get?

Why rob a large(ish) establishment for so little cash?

:-):-) what an idiot!!! Glad everyone was ok :-)

Not to mention some guy named Beezow Doo-Doo Zopittybop-Bop-Bop...you heard of him recently. I mean really, the guy's gotta be a moron to change his name to something like that...

It's hard to catch the smart ones, luckily most fall into the dumb category, job security at least :-)

Looks similary to Pee Wee Herman :-)

It's not all surprising what stupid criminals will do. Such as...call 911 to report something and have the police arrive at the location knowning that such caller has a warrant and even the caller knows!!! Then the police get yelled at for taking the caller to jail. Classic and it happens all the time! :-)

Wow that guy is as stupid as the guy that tried to rob the butcher shop I worked in during High School with a pocket knife.

I have asked many a stupid criminal "At what point did this seem like a good idea to you ?" Have yet to get an answer to that question.
