Daily Dose of Dumb
A strong contender for dumbest employee crime of the millennium . . .
Aaron Bell, 19, was convicted of attempting to rob a Kentucky Fried Chicken store in Philadelphia. Nothing too unusual about that, except for the fact that Bell had worked at the store for two years. Also, when he robbed the store he wore no mask or disguise, which allowed all of his co-workers to recognize him. In addition, even though the store’s safe automatically time-locked at 9:00 p.m., Bell chose 9:15 as the time to pull his heist, which meant he got nothing.
Following the incident, Bell somehow managed to elude police for three days. The fatal flaw in his brilliant plan was exposed, however, when he showed up for his next scheduled shift at the KFC as if nothing had happened. The alert manager called the cops and they arrested Bell in the restroom as he was changing into his uniform.
