CRIMINAL MASTERMINDS, NEW YORK CITY DIVISION

Two alleged robbers, fleeing the scene of the alleged crime, hail an unmarked police car responding to the same alleged crime.

Key Excerpt Indicating That the IQs of the Alleged Perpetrators Could Be in the Celery Range:

When the officers asked the men for identification, one of them pulled out the victim’s wallet instead, the police said.

“Oh, I just found this,” he said as he handed it over, said Joanne Jaffe, chief of the police housing unit.

Things just haven't gone well for Michael Jordan since he retired.

I love it when criminals turn themselves in. I hope this is a trend.

May as well go ahead and cancel "CSI-New York." With this level of criminal all the lab techs are just hanging around doing experiments with Mentos and Diet Coke.

How could two guys mug someone in an elevator, flee the scene and run into cops already responding to the crime?

Has anyone ever tried to call the cops in NYC? In the Bronx?

Who is the reporter here, a beer drinking fish?
