I’ve heard of skipping class to go to breakfast or skipping school to start vacation early. I have never heard of skipping school the way a Rhode Island kid skipped school on November 19, 2009.
He skipped to rob a bank.
It’s pretty bold when an adult tries to rob a bank but it’s especially bold when a 17 year old says to a teller “everyone will be shot” and makes off with cash when he should be figuring out geometry problems.
He was caught a couple of hours later from surveillance photos and he left forensic evidence on the note and was recognized by a school resource officer. So he:
1. Didn’t wear a mask
2. Stayed in his neighborhood
3. Left evidence
Has he not seen even one episode of CSI? Next time he should just drop his ID or call the cops and tell them to meet him at his house.
The world is full of morons committing crimes. What’s your favorite dumb criminal story?
