Wow, just wow. Of all the places you could rob, these three chose a place where police dogs are trained. Could be worse, though. Could have tried robbing a building that was being imploded.

People are stupid.

About copper wire stealings, it is becoming more and more common here in Brazil too. These fuckers are stealing everything they can, even if its just to sell for a few cents.

Guess those dogs passed the training.

Isn't it heartwarming to see citizens taking part in the training of police officers? :p

I also have an article about a bride attacking a groom with a shoe and another about a fake cop pulling over a real cop. There are links to these articles in the one I posted.

I live near a building which used to be used as a borstal but now houses dogs while they're being trained for the same thing. A couple of guys were being chased down the road beside it and managed to crash their car. Apparently they thought it would be a good idea and jump the wall and sprint across a field to the treeline. Unfortunately for them the dogs were just released after them

... I remember reading a story about a stupid criminal. he was hotfooting it with some cops chasing him. He was dodging in and around houses at night but couldn't loose the cops. finally he was taken down.

How did the officers keep track of him in the dark of night?

He was wearing those new fad sneakers that had a LED in the heels that blinked with every step...

Criminals like this guy and those mentioned above practically catch themselves.

You must be young because in the 80´s and 90´s they did tons of movies with K9 Dogs + Solitary Detectives. And some of them could even talk (I´m talking about the dogs).

You had even K9000 dogs or something like that.

What Dundee-Fienn said.

I think Dog Handler (Unit) is most common.

I remember K-9; I think it's still repeated here on morning TV. And Dr. Who had several K-9 robotic dogs.

I just thought it was a fairly poor pun.

I never heard of any such movies or talking dogs. Since Google and other search engines are not my friends (often, I can only find what I'm looking for on "page" 45 or more) and I don't really like wikipedia that much either (the list of disambiguation sometimes confuses me and wiki often doesn't have the info. I'm looking for), would you please be so kind as to elaborate on the subject of these movies, these talking dogs, and these k9000 dogs?

You're obviously just bad at using them.

I remember reading about an idiot who decided to rob a doughnut shop. Said shop was opposite a police station.
ummm.....surprisingly enough there were quite a few policemen in there.

this is quite possibly the worst of the dreary lot (and that's saying something):
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0270882/
Plot:
When LAPD computer expert Peter Fowler investigates the killing of an old man in Chinatown, he finds the only witness is his dog, Cho Cho. But Fowler soon discovers Cho Cho is the only dog in the world who can speak to humans... not only that, Cho Cho is an expert in martial arts.
It even has Chevy Chase who's still successfully continuing his downward slide into embarrassment and mediocrity.

And he did. Apparently he was too fucking drunk to remember the roof he then tried to make his way back over, was the roof of the local police chief's home :p

I've done something even more clever though, so I probably shouldn't be talking.

In the video I posted, a guy tried to rob a liquor store at night. He was eventually arrested because he could NOT get out. The doors were locked.

Then there was this blind guy who tried to rob a bank. The security guard who helped the blind man get to the clerk window was standing right behind him and the clerk lady mouthed to him that it was a robbery attempt. Trying to rob a bank when security was standing right behind you.

Sweet Lord if I didn't se that recently, must be on HBO - the old wise-cracking martial arts dog meets fumbling detective and solves crime caper - never tires

That's nothing....a police station was successfully broken into by robbers just outside Belfast a few weeks ago.

They do around here. Deputy who has a dog is unit number 14K9. 14 is our county number, usually it goes 141 where 1 is the deputy's number.
