In Los Angeles, a man pulled up next to a police car at a red light and said to the officers, "I just stole this car." The officers, intrigued, decided to pursue the matter. The man proceeded to tell them he had stolen it from an apartment complex in San Diego and that he used a screwdriver to bypass the ignition. He continued by saying that the reason he's telling them is because he's almost out of gas. When the police let the owner of the vehicle know about her car, she hadn't even realized it was stolen yet.
Hahaha! The guy could have just gone to a gas station, filled up, and driven away without suspicion. Then again, he probably didn't have money to do that anyway. He even could have abandoned the car somewhere. But nooo. I guess he figured his joy ride was over so he decided to just make the police department's job easier. He didn't even feel guilty about it! Turns out he has a history of stealing cars. You would have thought this would have been his first if he's giving himself up that easily.
The LAPD Lieutenant, Paul Vernon, said it best...
"If crooks really thought their crimes through, they wouldn't do them in the first place."
I guess he'll check the gas gauge before he steals another car.
