Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Glen Snow for sending in today’s report from the International file in Wellington, New Zealand. Our bozos were looking for something to steal and they thought they had hit the motherlode when they spotted a box full of chemicals inside a truck. Thinking it was the ingredients for manufacturing methamphetamine, they broke in and fled with the box of stuff. Unfortunately, the stuff was not what they expected. The truck they broke into belonged to a company that is involved in protecting New Zealand’s native species. And one of the species they are researching is the New Zealand stoat, or short tailed weasel. The chemicals in the containers was anal-gland oil from the stoat, one of the foulest smelling chemicals on earth. Not sure what our bozos did with the stuff but if the cops want to find them, they should just follow their nose.

Bozo Criminal for today comes from Burlington, Washington, where our unidentified 49-year-old bozo drove to the State Patrol Office, walked up to the desk sergeant on duty and told him he’d like to pay his utilities bill. The officer politely told the man he had the wrong office, that this was the police department. Our bozo wouldn’t take no for an answer and insisted that he had paid his utilities bill at the office before. Bad idea. As he continued to talk, the officers noticed the strong aroma of marijuana wafting from him. He’s busted. Charged with DUI.

Bozo criminal for today comes from Centralia, Washington, where our unidentified bozo was fed up with the roach infestation in his apartment. And it seemed like the weren’t harmed by the bug spray at all. So, he came up with a bozo solution. He fired up his cigarette lighter in front of the spray from the insecticide can and created and makeshift flamethrower. He then went after the bugs with the flaming spray. As you might expect, the flamethrower did more damage to his apartment than to the bugs, so he was forced to flee, warning his neighbors as he exited the building. Police and fire crews were called and our bozo was arrested on suspicion of second degree reckless burning. No word on the fate of the roaches.

Our bozo for today comes from Rogue River, Oregon, where a man was walking his dog when he decided to take a break and visit a port-a-potty. When he opened the door, he found the facility occupied, but not in the manner in which you might expect. Inside were several very large marijuana plants. The cops suspect the plants were placed there as a “drop” to be picked up and are presently looking for the pot supplier.

Bozo criminals for today come from Madisonville, Kentucky, where a bozo man and woman team obviously had a beef with the owner of a newly opened barber shop. Security footage shows our bozos pull up outside the building in a white minivan. The woman breaks the back window of the business while her bozo partner emerges from the van holding a lit Molotov cocktail. He tosses the flaming bottle thru the window and then tries to throw a second one. And that’s when things started to go bad. The second toss misses the window, splashing the man with the burning liquid. He is seen running to some nearby grass where he stops, drops, and rolls to put out the flames. He then returns to the van, tossing away a flaming sock on the way. Thinking this was just not his day, he takes another bottle of flammable liquid and pours it out before they flee in the van. Police are hoping someone will be able to ID our bozos from the video footage.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Troy House for sending in today’s report from the International File in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. A police officer stopped at the Liberty Village police station garage to fill up his car. While there, our bozo walked up and climbed into the back of the cruiser. No, this wasn’t his way of turning himself in. Our extremely intoxicated bozo thought the cruiser was a cab. Further investigation found that he was wanted on an outstanding warrant. Oops. He’s under arrest.

For our bozo criminals for today from Clarksville, Tennessee, the plan was set…steal items, pawn said items, enjoy cash. Step one went well as they broke into a residence and got away with several items without a hitch. It was step two that turned out to be a problem. They headed down to the local pawn shop and the clerk balked at accepting the items. The reason? They looked awfully familiar. Thinking they might be items from his home, he checked with a neighbor. After discovering that his house had been broken into, he called the cops, who arrived in time to arrest our bozos inside the shop.

Our bozo report for today comes from the International File in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, where the police received a report of a large, muscular man carrying a gun. Police issued an alert and several squad cars arrived on the scene. After a quick look around they found the alleged perp, who was taken into custody without incident. The police didn’t even try to interrogate him, either. You see, what had caused all the commotion was a large cardboard cutout of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s character from the movie, The Terminator. Case closed.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Troy House for sending in today’s report from Doraville, Georgia. Police observed a GMC box truck being driven on the wrong side of the road. When bozo Alejandro Parra was pulled over, he told the cops he didn’t have a driver’s license and had “no idea” what was inside the truck. Right. Cops took a look inside and found 169 bundles of marijuana with an estimated weight of 3996 pounds. Oops. He’s busted!

Bozo criminal for today comes from Athens, Georgia, where the cops responded to a 911 call at a residence. When they arrived, they found a husband and wife involved in a heated argument. It was the cause of the argument that landed them in the Bozo Hall of Fame. Apparently our bozo husband had asked his wife to make him a grilled cheese sandwich. She complied, but she added three slices of cheese instead of the two that he preferred. This sent him into a rage which prompted their 12 year-old daughter to call the cops. He’s under arrest on obstruction of a 911 call and criminal trespass/damage to property charges.

Bozo criminal for today violated Bozo Rule Number 11292889: Don’t take your ID to a burglary. From South Brunswick, New Jersey comes the story of bozo Jarred Parker who seemed to be having quite a bit of success as a thief. Using a van “borrowed” from the day care center where he worked, our bozo is accused of pulling off 48 burglaries, getting away with numerous laptops, cash and other items, mostly stolen from parked cars. Things came to an end when the cops spotted him in the parking lot of an apartment complex and gave chase. Somehow, while fleeing, he dropped his wallet. Oops. Using the ID inside our bozo was tracked down and placed under arrest.

Bozo criminal for today comes from Lake Orion, Michigan, where the cops observed bozo Michael Baxter leave a local restaurant on his motorcycle at around 2:15 am. After our bozo performed a “loud and aggressive brake torque” an officer flipped on his lights and pulled him over. As soon as he exited his vehicle, our bozo peeled out at a high rate of speed. He was long gone before the cops could get back into his car and give pursuit. End of story, right? Wrong. Our bozo just couldn’t resist bragging about the incident on his Facebook page, saying that he was doing 140 in a 35 MPH zone and using the hashtags #nojailthisweekend and #everyonelovedit. Well, not everyone. The cops were able to use the post to track him down and he’s now facing a five-year felony charge of fleeing an officer and one charge of reckess driving. Hashtag hegotwhathedeserved.

Our bozo for today comes from Orlando, Florida, where the cops staked out a local 7-Eleven for suspected drug activity. They pulled over a suspect after he left the store and failed to make a complete stop coming out of the parking lot. The cops noticed something suspicious on the floor of the car…a “rock like substance.” Further investigation revealed three more pieces of the suspicious stuff. The driver protested that he was innocent, but he was taken in on suspicion of possession of crystal meth. At the jail, he was searched, but no evidence of drugs was found, so he was released on $2500 bail. And then the results of the “rock like” substance came back from the lab. Meth? Nope. Glaze from a Krispy Kreme donut, as the suspect had claimed? Yep. He’s considering a lawsuit.

Bozo criminal for today comes from Albany, New York, where the cops were puzzled by why someone left containers of excrement and urine on one floor of the Department of Environmental Conservation’s downtown offices. The building had to be shut down as more than 40 buckets of the stinky stuff were removed. It was while the cops were hauling the poop out that one of them noticed something. Among all the waste was a piece of paper. Nope, not toilet paper. Instead, it was a utility bill. Yep, our phantom pooper had left his electric bill among all his little surprises. DNA sampling linked him to the dirty deed. He’s under arrest.

Bozo criminal for today comes from the International File in Prerov, Czech Republic. It seems our unidentified bozo ran up a rather large bar bill and found himself unable to pay. So, he did what any bozo would do, he stripped off all his clothes, left them for collateral and walked out in search of cash. Surveillance cameras showed him walking through downtown, clad only in ankle-length black socks, talking on his cell phone. Needless to say, this attracted the attention of the cops, who were more understanding than you might expect. After he explained he was on the way to another pub to get some cash, they allowed him to complete his quest. Apparently, he got the money and he returned to pay his bill and retrieve his clothes. Police say the case is still open and he may be charged at a later time.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Troy House for sending in today’s report from the International File in Chongqing, China. Our bozo had just met his girlfriend online and they were getting to know each other. He learned that she liked police officers, so our bozo purchased fake uniforms and badges online. But she still wasn’t buying the story. So, our bozo was forced to resort to desperate measures. He took her down to the local police station where he walked in and introduced himself to everyone as the “new police chief.” Not surprisingly, the cops quickly saw through the ruse and did some quick research which proved the old chief was still in charge. Busted! He was placed under arrest for impersonating an officer.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Cliff Weixel for sending in today’s report from Jamestown, North Dakota. Bozo Tyler Davis called the cops to report a burglary at his residence. When the police arrived they quickly discovered this was no ordinary burglary. Our bozo reported that someone had broken the rear window, entered the residence and escaped with in excess of $30,000 in cash. Oh, and one more thing, he also took about a pound of marijuana. Oops. Maybe he shouldn’t have reported that. The police obtained a search warrant and found more pot and an additional $12,000 in cash inside the residence. He’s been charged with possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver, a Class A felony.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Fred McKinney for sending in today’s report from East Grand Forks, Minnesota. Bozo Lucas Green was caught on surveillance video allegedly committing a burglary. When the cops went to his residence to question him, he jumped in his truck and fled the scene. He led the police on a 13-mile chase before he unexpectedly started slowing down. He then pulled over and attempted to flee. He didn’t get very far before the cops caught up to him. So, he had a change of heart and decided to surrender? Nope, the truck simply ran out of gas. He’s under arrest.

Our list of Bozo Pokemon Go players on parade continues today with this story from East Greenwich Township, New Jersey. The local Fire and Rescue crew received a call asking for help getting someone down from a tree. Yes, that is “someone”, not “something” as in the usual trapped cat. When they arrived, they found a woman, smartphone in hand, stuck in the tree. Her bozo excuse…she was chasing a rogue Pokemon and climbed up the tree in an effort to catch it, only to find herself unable to get down. The rescue team retrieved her. No word on the fate of the Pokemon.

The way things are going, we may have to develop a completely separate category for Pokemon Go bozos. Bozo News Hawk Glen Snow sent this one in from Baltimore, Maryland. It seems our bozo was intently playing his game and searching for the elusive Pokemon, all while driving his car. And the worst possible thing happened at the worst possible moment. He crashed his car…into a parked police cruiser. Fortunately, the cops weren’t in the vehicle at the time and no one was injured. The cops were nice about the whole thing. No report on whether the Pokemon was caught.
