Weird Its: Sticky notes from the strange

‘Sauced’ burglar drenched in BBQ camouflage

Posted by weirdits on July 7, 2008

One Wisconsin burglar had more than sticky fingers when he broke into a family’s home recently–he was discovered in the basement, inexplicably drenched in BBQ sauce. The residents heard the cookout-ready crook whistling down below, which drew the attention–and the firepower–of the homeowner, who kept a shotgun trained on the painted perp until police arrived and questioned his edible attire. The suspect’s saucy response stated he was covered in ‘urban camouflage,’ since he was ‘on the run from the government.’ Perhaps he’s on to something: somewhere in a distant land, tucked away in a cave, Osama bin Laden may be covered in KC Masterpiece sauce. Paging Hannibal Lecter!

    Crime doesn’t pay–but it makes me hungry just to hear about it. I’m having ribs tonight–but I don’t plant to catch ‘em in my basement.
