Robber Jailed After Leaving Wallet at Crime Scene

First of all, if you are a criminal—no matter how devious or ingenious you think your crime might be—you are a freakin’ moron.

And because you are a moron, you will eventually get caught. Some criminals just make a cop’s job a little easier than others:

EULESS [TX] – A robbery suspect was caught after leaving his wallet on the store counter — and then going to the police station to pick it up.

Joseph Fahnbulleh, 22, of Arlington, remained in the Euless City Jail with bail set at $30,000. He faces a robbery charge.

A few days after the robbery, he walked into the Euless police station to pick up his wallet after a detective called to tell him someone had found it.

“Once we had the wallet, we called him to say it had been turned in to our lost and found,” Euless police Detective Marco Valladares said. “We don’t really have one.”

A clerk told police that during a Jan. 29 robbery, a man gave him $5 for cigarettes. When the cash drawer was opened, the robber sprayed the clerk with pepper spray and grabbed about $200, police said.

In the famous words of Glenn Reynolds: Heh.
