Stupid Criminal: A Robbery Suspect Was Nabbed, After Walking Behind a News Crew Covering the Robbery?

Looking for a suspect can be like searching for a needle in a haystack.  Or, it can be like searching for a SCREAMING BABY in a haystack.  (???)

A man suspected of committing multiple robberies in Colorado was found, walking in the background while TV news crews were filming a segment ABOUT HIM.  It happened this past Friday.

One of the reporters, a man named Justin Adams, did a double-take as he watched him walk across the street behind him.  He later said he was just “in a sense of disbelief” when he saw the guy he JUST DESCRIBED.

The suspect was 26-year-old Richard Applequist.  He was wearing a hood, and didn’t seem bothered by the cameras, but the crew called 911, and he was in police custody within 10 minutes.

He’s still being questioned, there’s no word on any charges yet.

(Here’s a full breakdown of what happened.  And a brief clip.)
