Remember the Japanese man who called the police from the same police station he’d broken into to steal a girlie poster (read it here)? Not long after that happened, another dumb crook does something equally dumb.

In Sydney, Australia, a 35-year old man calls the police in the wee hours of the morning after hearing his window being smashed.

When the police arrives, he tells them this:

“The thief took all my cannabis plants!”

After the police searched the house, they found another 6 plants. The man was arrested and charged under drug offences.

In a police statement:

“Members of the public are reminded that the growing of cannabis is not only illegal but can also attract other criminal activity such home break-ins and assaults,” the statement said.

What they should have said was:

“This man is a dumbass.”
