8 at 7:30, -1.5% decline. 6 at 6:39, -3% decline. Now in honor of Halloween, some brilliant thieves tried to make their own costumes to hide their identity, with permanent marker on their faces.
Police say guilt was written all over their faces. Police
received a call Friday night that two men with hooded sweatshirts and
painted faces had tried to break into a man's home in Carroll, Iowa. When police stopped a vehicle matching the caller's description blocks away, they were stunned by the men's disguises. There
were no ski masks or stockings pulled over their heads; instead,
Matthew Allan McNelly, 23, and Joey Lee Miller, 20, streaked their
faces with permanent black marker. Carroll Police Chief Cayler told CNN the strange disguises made it easier for his officers. "We're
very skilled investigators and the black faces gave them right away,"
Cayler said jokingly. "I have to assume the officers were kind of
laughing at the time. I've never heard of coloring your face with a
permanent marker." |
