The Bozo Criminal Report is on vacation. We’ll return the first week of October!

Bozo criminal for today comes from Lawrence Township, Ohio, where the cops were called to the Giant Eagle grocery store with a report of a rather unusual theft. The store’s loss prevention manager received a tip about theft in the cold-cuts department of the deli. Further investigation revealed that an employee had a serious ham and salami addiction. It seems the deli worker had been eating up the store’s profits, to the tune of $9200 worth of stolen deli meat over the last eight years. At a cost of $10 per pound, that’s over 900 pounds of meat, or a third of a pound of meat every single day for eight years. Burp. Police are still trying to decide how to proceed in prosecuting the case.

Bozo criminal for today comes from Attica Township, Michigan, where the cops were called to a report of a man driving erratically. Upon arrival, they noted him swerving all over the road and when he was pulled over he offered up the Bozo Excuse of the Week. He said he was merely swerving to avoid potholes in the road. After observing that there weren’t that many holes in the road, the officers administered a sobriety test and our bozo was found to be driving under the influence of drugs and a baggie containing opioids was found in his possession. He’s busted!

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Glen Snow for sending in today’s report from Wareham, Massachusetts, where the cops were called to a report of a shoplifting at the local Walmart. Upon arrival the cops found our two unidentified bozos. Female bozo number one admitted stealing some items and showed them to to officer stuffed inside her purse. Her male companion also had stolen some things which were stuffed in his pants. It was their excuse for the theft that landed them in the Bozo Hall of Shame. They told the police they needed some nice things to wear for an upcoming court appearance. Well. Guess they’ll just have to look sloppy.

Bozo criminals for today come from New Scotland, New York, where the cops pulled over a bozo and his female companion for driving erratically. The driver was asked to step out of the vehicle while another officer took a look at a three-year-old girl who was improperly restrained in the back seat. It was at this point that the toddler reached under the front seat, pulled out a baggie, opened it and handed it to the officer. Inside the baggie, marijuana, a pipe and a grinder. Oops. Our two bozos were busted and the child taken into protective custody.

Bozo criminal for today from the International File in Birmingham, England, violated Bozo Rule Number @121256: Limit yourself to drinking ONE case of beer before pulling off a burglary. Our bozo, who had recently been released from prison, told the cops he was “bored” when he drank 24 bottles of Budweiser and a bottle of Jagermeister. He then staggered out with the intent of pulling off a heist. He rode his bike to a residence where he stole a flat screen TV. Police were called and followed our wobbly bozo for a mile as he made a couple of U-turns before finally crashing into a police car. He’s busted and charged with burglary and DUI.

Bozo criminals for today from San Diego, California, stole some grass. No, not marijuana. Grass. A contractor dropped off a 650 pound spool of turf at a residence with plans to come back later and use it to landscape the lawn. But our bozos had other ideas. Security cameras caught them trying to stuff the 16 feet of turf into a trunk 2 feet deep. The video shows them driving off with most of the grass dragging on the ground. They left a trail of turf behind them as they exited the neighborhood. Police expect to make an arrest soon.

Bozo criminal for today comes from St. Lucie County, Florida, where the cops were called to a report of a disturbance at a residence. Upon arrival, a woman there told the cops that she had returned home to find her boyfriend, our bozo, drunk and belligerent. During a confrontation, our bozo gave the woman a “wet willie” by sticking his finger in her ear. Thinking this kind of behavior needed to be nipped in the bud, the cops placed our bozo under arrest, charged with battery.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Glen Snow for sending in today’s report from the International File in Tokyo, Japan. It was the early morning hours when our bozo walked into a Family Mart convenience store, reached into his pocket, pulled out his weapon and demanded the clerk empty the register. The clerk, taken aback, took a look at the weapon he was being threatened with, and decided to ignore the request, instead running into the back of the store. In the meantime, an officer on patrol nearby was alerted to the situation and our bozo was taken into custody without further custody. Oh, did we fail to mention his choice of weapon? A pair round tip nose hair trimmers. Our no doubt well groomed bozo is under arrest.

Bozo criminal for today from Hawick, Minnesota violated Bozo Rule Number 223332: Always have a clear getaway path planned. It seems our bozo stole some lumber and other items from a farmer’s shed and loaded them into his pickup. He then planned a quick getaway. Guess he didn’t see that large manure pile straight ahead. The farmer noticed the theft the next morning and called the cops, informing them that the thief was still on the property. When police arrived, they found our bozo covered head to toe in manure, still trying to free his truck without much success. He offered up the Bozo Excuse that a “friend” had bought the lumber and he was helping him. Sorry, that story won’t fly. He was hosed off and arrested.

Bozo criminal for today comes from Los Angeles, California, where a homeowner checking his security camera around 11:30 pm spotted a suspicious man on the property. For whatever reason, he didn’t notify the cops but instead decided to take a look around the next morning. And that’s when he spotted our bozo, wedged between a wall and the home’s garage. When it became obvious he wasn’t going anywhere, the cops and the fire department were called. After more than an hour, our bozo was extracted and charged with trespassing.

Bozo criminal for today comes from Roanoke, Virginia, where our unidentified bozo broke into the Clean Soles shoe store and made off with a big haul of shoes from the displays around the store. Guess he didn’t notice that all the display shoes were for the right foot only. Oops. Police ask that if you see anyone wearing what appears to be two right shoes to please contact them.
