Brazen Fla. burglar grabs TV in double-steal - Central Florida News 13:  http://www.cfnews13.com/Entertainment/OffbeatHeadlines/2009/8/29/brazen_fla._burglar_grabs_tv_in_doublesteal.html

 

PENSACOLA, Fla.(AP)



Police in Florida say a burglar who made off with a man's valuables returned to the home later and snatched what he couldn't carry on his first trip: a 100-pound plasma-screen TV.

A Pensacola Police investigator was on the scene when the robber came back hours after the first burglary.

The man who lived at the house, Steve Fluegge, says he was shocked the burglar came back and stole the television. The suspect had already stolen Fluegge's wallet, watch and video game system.

Police and K-9 units canvassed the neighborhood, but couldn't find the burglar or the TV.

Investigators had left the TV in the backyard, where the burglar put it, so they could dust for fingerprints.

Police have offered to pay for the TV.

Oh how I wish I could find those 12g Rock Salt rounds.... They were so effective against thieves back in the day....

O.K. Personal story to attest. Tearing up the orange groves as a kid on my dirtbike old man Hensley hit me in the right calf and thigh with rock salt,........

Glad he aimed low, and never went through his groves again..... When your 15, sometimes you need to learn the hard way,...

I did, and wish I had a few rounds of that rock salt today...

Sounds like a 100lb. TV would be great for an ass shot of rock salt, too bad I'd get sued for assault with a deadly weapon.....

The poor police chief would probably buy some from you after he had to give that press conference. I would seriously hate to be those officers. I just picture them being called into the chiefs office and informed that the rest of their careers would be spent on pooper scooper patrol, with a possible promotion to parking enforcement and cavity search specialist if they actually do catch the guy. ;D

Without getting too hyperbolic this is the problem with government involvement in your everyday life.  Too bad too many folks would fail to see the parallel.
