"Underwear not disguise enough for robber"

Odd News:

"Underwear not disguise enough for robber"

(UPI) -- An alleged robber's disguise -- women's panties -- wasn't enough to keep witnesses from identifying him, leading to an arrest by Indiana police, officials said.

A man brandishing a large knife and covering his face with underwear robbed a convenience store in Franklin, Ind. Monday. He made off with cash, cigarettes and a lighter, WRTV, Indianapolis reported Wednesday.

Despite the disguise, both a customer and the station clerk were able to give police a description of the robber detailed enough to lead police to set up surveillance around a Franklin home.

Officers spotted Larry Bernard stumbling and intoxicated with a 12-inch knife in his waistband, Franklin Police Lt Chris Tennell said.

Panties, cash, cigarettes and a lighter matching the stolen one were found in his pockets, police said.

Bernard was taken to Johnson County Jail and held on $21,000 bond, WRTV reported.

"Teen allegedly broke into house seeking snack food"

Odd News:

"Teen allegedly broke into house seeking snack food"

A 17-year-old Sheboygan boy was charged Thursday after breaking into a neighbor’s house in search of snack food.

Ronald M. Savela Jr., was fingered as the suspect since he broke into the same house using the same window last year, the complaint said. Only this time, the break-in comes with a felony charge, since 17-year-olds are charged as adults in Wisconsin.
A woman in the 2200 block of South Eighth Street called police Wednesday to report a basement window had been broken out. After confirming her kids weren’t responsible, the woman said she thought of Savela because of the prior break-in.

In an interview with police, Savela admitted smashing the window with a rock, removing the screen and trying to get in to find snack food.
