It is rare that we include someone in the Bozo Report who isn’t actually a criminal, but this guy is so criminally stupid that we had to share. From the International File in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, comes the story of an unidentified bozo who was having a few problems in the romance department. So, he came up with a bozo idea. He would implant some metal balls into his most private of parts. He even performed the surgery on himself. Ouch. Not surprisingly, after a few days he started to experience extreme pain. After a visit to the doctor, the balls were removed and the problem was revealed. They were beginning to rust. Yikes!

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Troy House for sending in today’s report from Frederick, Maryland. Tattoos are quite stylish these days but this is the first time we’ve had a report of a tattoo leading to an arrest. It would seem bozo Max Green had a distinctive tattoo done on his left forearm at the Classic Electric Tattoo shop. Nothing wrong with that, unless, of course, you’re planning on robbing that same tattoo shop a short time later. And that’s exactly what happened. Our bozo and an accomplice broke into the tattoo shop and stole a couple of guns, some cellphones and some small electronic items. While looking at surveillance footage, one of the tattoo shop employees recognized the tattoo on our bozo’s arm as one he had done. He’s busted!

Bozo criminals for today come from the International File in Ottakring, Austria, where cops were called to an apartment building after residents complained of a loud argument. When the police arrived, they found our two bozos shouting at each other in the building’s courtyard. It was what they were arguing about that got them into trouble. As the cops eavesdropped on the shouting match, they learned that the brothers were arguing about installing an irrigation system for their marijuana plants. One brother thought it was a good idea, the other brother disagreeed. They won’t have to worry about it anymore. They’ve been arrested on suspicion of cultivation of illicit drugs.

Our bozo for today turns out not to be a criminal but is deserving of mention anyway. From the International File in Pisa, Italy, comes the story of our unidentified bozo who was found prowling around the bedroom of a residence by the homeowner. The cops were called and he was quickly apprehended. After noticing nothing was taken, the cops began questioning and that’s when we learned the rest of the story. Apparently our bozo was having an affair with the homeowner’s wife and had come over for a little late night get together when he was surprised by the husband, who wasn’t aware of the affair. This led to a physical altercation between the two. The cops broke it up and loverboy was taken away.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Troy House for sending in today’s report from the International File In Leeds, England. Police officers were called to a report of a burglary and were investigating when they encountered our bozo, running toward them, sweating profusely and rubbing his head, which was covered with swollen red welts. Turns he had stolen a fish tank from a residence and then felt the call of nature and had gone into the woods to relieve himself. Unfortunately, while he was peeing he was attacked by a large swarm of angry wasps. After being treated for the stings, he was placed under arrest.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Donald Grimes for sending in today’s report from Massena, New York where bozo Daniel Rhodes was arrested for driving without a license. Things went from bad to worse when he was taken to the station house for booking. Our bozo was fumbling for his ID when something fell from his pocket to the police department floor. Officers quickly snatched the baggie which was found to contain crack cocaine. Oops. You can add criminal possession of a controlled subject to that moving violation.

Bozo criminal for today comes from Clearwater, Florida, where bozo Justin Goldwyn was in the marijuana business. And, of course, a basic part of any business involves transporting your product. Our bozo had several large marijuana plants that he needed to move, so he loaded them into his vehicle. Good idea, except…it was a small vehicle and they were very large marijuana plants. So large that he had no choice but to roll down the back windows and stick the plants out the windows like a happy dog sticking his head out while going for a ride. Things went from bad to worse when the pot-laden vehicle drove past a police cruiser. Oops. He’s busted!

Bozo criminal for today comes from Rehoboth, Delaware, where bozo Stephen Carter broke into a local seafood restaurant. While rummaging around, he set aside some bottles of alcohol and was looking for other things to steal when he came upon the treasure trove. A big bowl of fresh crabmeat. So he took the crab, the booze and whatever cash he could find and fled, right? Wrong. Instead, our bozo set up shop in the kitchen and began preparing himself a nice meal of crab cakes. Police were tipped off to suspicious activity in the restaurant and arrived before he got to enjoy his tasty treat. Sorry, no crab cakes on the jailhouse menu.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Troy House for sending in today’s report from Merced County, California. Bozo Shawn Carter walked into a Chase Bank, threatened the teller and demanded cash. He was given $2748 which he shoved down the front of his pants. Officers noticed him still trying to stuff the cash into his pants as he walked out of the bank. They grabbed him and walked him back inside,with money falling all the time. When the teller identified him as the robber, he was transported to the police station, with the cash continuing to fall to the ground as he walked. The remainder, $334, fell out when he was asked to stand up for questioning. He’s busted!

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Bob Hammond for sending in today’s report from Wilsonville, Oregon, which shows a clear violation of Bozo Rule Number 893603: It’s always good to dress inconspiciously for your heist. It seems bozo Daniel Dawson donned a kilt and walked into the local Fry’s Electronics store. He stuffed several items, including a toy helicopter, into the front pocket of the kilt and walked out. He was so successful that he decided to try the same trick the very next day. However, this time security guards were paying a little more attention to a guy in a kilt and noticed him putting several items into his pocket and stopped him on his way out. He’s been charged with theft.

Bozo criminal for today comes from Ocala, Florida where bozo Adam Lucas called 911 to report an issue of domestic violence involving his girlfriend. The cops arrived and, after investigating, placed her under arrest. Perhaps our bozo thought this 911 thing was a personal wish fulfillment service, because he called them back a short time later with a different request. This time he asked for a ride to a liquor store so he could buy some beer. Bad idea. After he repeated his request he was placed under arrest for misuse of 911.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Glen Snow for sending in today’s report. Our bozo from Chicopee, Massachusetts found herself in need of a license plate for her car. Since she was a little short of funds, she decided to take a rather unique, and stupid, approach to remedying her problem. She grabbed a piece of cardboard and some colored markers and went to work creating her own license plate. Yep, she hand lettered a “plate” and put it on her car. She didn’t get very far as a cop quickly noticed it and pulled her over. She’s busted!

Bozo criminal for today comes from Boca Raton, Florida, where Daniel Velasquez was on the run from the cops, accused of stealing thousands in cash from his friend’s wallet after a night of drug use. He crashed his Lexus into a fire hydrant and fled on foot, with the cops in hot pursuit. As you might imagine, the heat and high humidity took its toll and soon our bozo was knocking on the door of a residence, asking for a drink of water. The homeowner obliged, and when she returned with the drink, she found our bozo lying on the floor, petting her cats. Sensing something wasn’t quite right, her husband contacted the cops and our bozo was placed under arrest.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Troy House for sending in today’s report from Bibb County, Georgia. Officers at the county jail thought they were doing something nice for a couple of inmates when they granted their request to attend their grandmother’s funeral. Our bozos may have wanted to pay their last respects, but there was something else on their minds as well. Apparently they arranged for someone on the outside to stash marijuana, tobacco, a lighter and a cellphone in granny’s casket. They grabbed the goodies as they were visiting grandma, but it would seem they didn’t realize they would be subject to a search when they returned to jail. Oops. They’re busted!

We’ll be back next week!

Bozo criminal for today just wanted to have a little fun, and when he didn’t get it, he called the cops. From Butte, Montana, comes the story of bozo William Martin who went to the local gentleman’s club and paid $350 for a private dance. He got that, but it seems he was expecting more. Lots more. And when the stripper refused his request, our bozo called the cops to register a consumer complaint. Bad idea. After questioning, he was charged with offering money for sexual favors, a misdemeanor.

Bozo criminal for today comes from Albuquerque, New Mexico, where bozo Michael Jones was due to meet with his probation officer. However, there was one small problem…he had no transportation. So he called a cab, right? Wrong. Hitchhiked? Nah. Walked? Nope. Went to Walmart and stole a motorized shopping cart? Correct-amundo! When the officer asked him where he got the cart, he fessed up to the theft. He’s now been charged with larceny and receiving stolen property.

Bozo criminal for today comes from Muhlenberg Township, Pennsylvania, where bozo Elijah Edwards likes Swiss cheese. Really likes Swiss cheese. Police believe he may be a serial Swiss cheese thief responsible for a number of thefts from local markets. He was busted when he visited the local Giant Food Store, where he stuffed four logs of cheese into his pants. A security guard stopped him when he noticed him “waddling when he walked.” When he was asked if he had Swiss cheese in his pants, he came up with the classic Bozo response, “What cheese?”. An unfortunate officer was called to search his pants and our bozo was arrested.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Troy House for sending in today’s report from Houston, Texas, where police were called to a report of a break in at a residence. Our thief was nowhere to be found, but the surveillance video that was left behind ensured his place in the Bozo Hall of Fame. The footage showed him squeezing his way into the house through a doggie door. Apparently he found what he was looking for, as he was seen a short time later leaving with a bicycle he found in the garage. Cameras then showed him trying to ride away on the bike, getting his foot caught in the rear tire and falling off. Quickly seeing the error of his ways, he left the bike behind and fled on foot. Police are on the lookout for our bozo, armed with some very clear video footage.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Fred McKinney for sending in our story of Bozo Brothers today. From Jonesboro, Arkansas, comes the story of bozos Brandon and David Brown who were arrested on charges of meth possession. David was able to post bond, but his brother remained jailed with a parole hold. Happy to be out, our bozo kept things on the straight and narrow, right? Wrong. He didn’t realize that all incoming phone calls are monitored when he called his incarcirated brother to tell him tha he was going to mail him some meth, hidden under the label on an envelope. The cops intercepted the letter and both are Bozo Brothers are now in jail.
