Losers down under

[Guest guest]

Sydney LOSER

The North Shore Times News crime column reported that a man walked into

Brookvale McDonalds at 8:50am flashed a gun and demanded cash. The clerk

turned him down because she said she couldn't open the cash register

without a food order. When the man ordered a Big MAC, the clerk said

they weren't available until 10:30 am as only the breakfast menu was on

offer. Frustrated, the man walked away.

 

ADELAIDE LOSERS

 

 

Two men tried to pull the front off an ATM machine in Adelaide's Henley

Street by running a chain from the machine to the bumper of their Toyota

Landcruiser, but instead of pulling the front panel off the machine they

pulled the bumper off their 4WD. Scared, and attracting attention from

oncoming traffic, they left the scene and drove home, with the chain

still attached to the machine, their bumper still attached to the chain,

and with their vehicle's license plate

still attached to the bumper.

 

No, they did not use a stolen car

 

WOLLONGONG LOSER

 

A man walked into a Seven-Eleven, put a $20 bill on the counter and

asked for change. When the clerk opened the cash drawer, the man pulled

a gun and asked for all the cash in the register, which the clerk

promptly provided. The man took the cash from the clerk and fled,

leaving the $20 bill on the counter. The total amount of cash he got

from the drawer? Fifteen dollars.

 

ROOTY HILL (Sydney) LOSER

 

Seems this guy wanted some beer pretty badly. He decided that he'd just

throw a brick through a liquor store window, grab some booze, and run.

So he lifted the brick and heaved it over his head at the window with

all his might. The brick bounced back and hit the would-be thief on the

head, knocking him unconscious. Apparently, the liquor store window was

made of Plexi-Glass. And the whole event was caught on videotape, which

the storeowner consequently sold for use on TV.

 

 

CAMPBELLTOWN (Sydney) LOSER

 

 

As a female shopper exited the Campbelltown K-Mart in Queen Street, a

man grabbed her purse and ran. A shop assistant at K-Mart called the

Police immediately and the woman was able to give them a detailed

description of the snatcher. Within minutes, the police had apprehended

the snatcher, trying to mingle in the shopping crowd on Queen Street.

They put him in the car and drove back to the K-Mart store. The thief

was then taken out of the car and up to the K-Mart front desk and told

to stand there for a positive ID. To which he replied; "Yes, Officer,

that's her. That's the lady I stole the purse

from.

 

Port MacQuarrie Loser

 

When a man attempted to siphon petrol from a motor home parked on a Port

Macquarie street, he got much more than he bargained for. Police arrived

at the scene to find an ill man curled up next to a motor home near

spilled sewage.

 

A police spokesman said that the man admitted to trying to steal petrol

and plugged his hose into the motor home's sewage tank by mistake. He

had tried to siphon the petrol by first sucking it up the hose. The owner of

the vehicle declined to press charges, saying that it was the

best laugh he'd ever had.
