*Face-palms hard* And I thought South Africa had the dumbest criminals ever.
We’ve had car thieves drive straight onto the grounds of a prison in Cape Town and a thief getting caught on camera stealing a handbag out of the trolley in Durban, but this chap in America really overdid it.
CCTV footage caught a suspected burglar busting out some sweet break-dancing moves after successfully breaking into a law firm in Fresno, California last week, according to a report by Mashable.
Here’s the celebration in all its unsubtle glory:
What a smooth criminal.
But obviously this wasn’t the time nor place to celebrate. The incriminating footage of his victory dance resulted in his subsequent arrest. Per the report:
The suspect, David Seale, was arrested a few days later a short distance away from the office building with a laptop that was reported stolen, along with “several keys” that unlocked the building that was burglarized [sic].
Ah well, at least the guy went out in style.
