Stolen bag of Milky Ways and a trail of wrappers leading through the woods straight to a trailer park. Really brilliant criminals here.

Edit. That's what you deserve for littering

Edit2. I hate thieves and littering equally.

It would absolutely be a Ricky thing to leave a trail of pepperoni and chicken chips wrappers as the boys are on the run.

No amount of investigative skill or luck will ever trump criminals being stupid.

I’m gonna take a wild guess that this article is just a scapegoat for “anonymous tips” from one of our lovely fed agencies.

This is almost certainly the answer. A family member or close friend or neighbor turned them in and they are protecting the tipper and their anonymity with this.

About two decades ago, mum worked in a small shop and they got robbed (in the night, nobody there), thieves stole some washing powder. Which was leaking and the powder line led the cops straight into the nearest apartment building, then to the exact door...

Is "washing powder" what British people call laundry detergent?

Sahqon t1_iud29gs wrote

Yeah, the old version in powder form. Which doesn't get used much nowadays, what with the capsules.

Edit: but I did a direct translation, I had to specify it was the white powder/granules thing cause otherwise it would not make much sense.

>robbed (in the night, nobody there)

Remember that robbery is a crime of force committed against a person. I really don't mean to be a pedant, but depending on the state maybe they got burglarized or someone broke and entered and committed theft. Also maybe someone pooped in their toilet tank. Anything is possible.

I mean, if they were smart they wouldn't be criminals in the first place. Or they would be white collar criminals instead.
