Good day all. It’s been a while since I’ve done a “Stupid Criminal of the Week!” post. Yesterday I came across this beauty out of Ohio. Someone has been robbing pharmacy’s of late.
Normally, I would have a name for you when I nominate a Stupid Criminal, unfortunately the police haven’t identified or caught this criminal mastermind as yet. However, they do have a picture of him. So, what has this doer of things most evil been stealing? Oxycontin? Valium? Some other narcotic? Nope. He’s stealing Rogaine.
Here are the details from The Smoking Gun:
Ohio police are hunting for a bald suspect in connection with a series of Rogaine thefts. According to cops, the middle-aged thief has boosted the popular hair loss treatment in repeated thefts at pharmacies, including a Walgreens in Mt. Healthy, a city 15 miles from Cincinnati.
During the $847 Mt. Healthy heist, the suspect also stole Prevagen, a “brain health supplement.”
Obviously, the supplement isn’t working for this idiot.
Police in neighboring Florence, Kentucky report that the suspect has stolen Rogaine from a CVS pharmacy and two Walgreens outlets in the city. Cops estimate that he is “believed to be responsible for several thousand dollars worth of stolen merchandise.”
The police released surveillance pictures of “Captain Chrome Dome” in hope that he will be identified and captured. I will say this much, he doesn’t look like your usual “Stupid Criminal of the Week” nominee. He’s reasonably dressed and looks very presentable. However, I don’t think there is that much of a black market for Rogaine. I mean really, can you imagine walking down a dark street, and some guy in an overcoat goes “Psst! Hey, wanna buy some Rogaine?”
So, this identity of this nominee for the Stupid Criminal of the Week isn’t known yet, but shall be forever known as “Captain Chrome Dome.” Perhaps he will steal some varnish and put a nice shine on his head to try and thwart the cameras in his next robbery.
Thatisall
