REAL LIFE NEWS: CAR THIEF TASED AND HANDCUFFED HIMSELF

by Hazed

Sometimes the police get some unexpected help when it comes to solving crime - from idiot criminals who do absolutely everything wrong!

Shane Thomas Williams-Allen of Orlando, Florida, was this week arrested on multiple burglary and grand-theft counts, and police think he may have been involved in as many as nine car burglaries. But one of those burglaries involved an unmarked Ocoee Police car, which is where things started to go wrong for the dumb criminal.

Stolen from the car were a Taser, an expandable baton, handcuffs, a Glock handgun magazine, a digital camera and a digital recorder.

His first problem: when he first discovered the Taser, he accidentally discharged it and gave himself a shock.

Then last week, he managed to lock himself into the handcuffs. He had to call authorities to set him free, which is when police figured they may have just been handed a criminal without having to do much detecting.
