Dumb Criminals: Cops Identify British Teen Robbers By Exposed Underwear

[Initech]

Two teenagers who robbed a newsagent before bragging about it on Facebook minutes later were caught due to their underwear being captured on CCTV.

Reece Winfield, 18, and Corey Hobson, 17, attacked the shopkeeper during the raid in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, before stealing cigarettes and alcohol.

Minutes later, Winfield took a photo of Hobson with the stolen items and posted it on Facebook.

Hobson also commented on a newspaper link to an article about the robbery which was posted on the social networking website, saying: "Hehehe that's me."

But it was their underwear, caught on CCTV hanging out above their low-slung trousers, that helped police to track them down.

Not the brightest looking two bulbs in the box. And, EWWWW if they were wearing the same stuff two days later. That makes at least three days.
