The owner was in the back, unbeknownst to the thief. He called 911 on his cellphone and alerted police, relaying his whereabouts to dispatchers, said Sonny Jackson, a Denver Police Department spokesman. The theft unfolded this morning at about 2 a.m. when the 1993 Ford pickup, [B]with the keys in the ignition in the unlocked cab[/B], was stolen near East Center Avenue and South Gilpin Street near Washington Park, Jackson said. "It's kind of unusual — he was in the back when he suddenly noticed he was moving," Jackson said of the victim. As the truck headed north, the owner relayed its whereabouts to police dispatchers, including Adams County sheriff's deputies. Police caught up to the stolen truck near West 92nd Avenue and Wadsworth Boulevard and Darwin Brown, 42, was arrested. He is being held at the Denver Jail on suspicion of car theft. Police also found about an ounce of marijuana in a backpack in the cab, which they suspect belonged to Brown. The truck was handed over to the owner, who was not hurt other than losing a bit of sleep.[/release] Protip: Next time you're going to sleep in your camper, make sure you lock the cab and take the keys off the damn ignition :downs: Also, about the ounce of pot in that backpack... :10bux: it was his but he blamed it on the thief... "[I]Ohh no officer, that's certainly not mine! The thief must have brought it with him, along with that bong you found in the glove box![/I] v:v:v"

Wow they both are geniuses

Holy shit it's George Lopez

[QUOTE=lexus04;27671562]Wow they both are geniuses[/QUOTE] Also, this reminds me of a joke. [quote]Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson go on a camping trip, and after finishing their dinner they retire for the night, and go to sleep. Some hours later, Holmes wakes up and nudges his faithful friend. "Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see." "I see millions and millions of stars, Holmes" exclaims Watson. "And what do you deduce from that?" Watson ponders for a minute. "Well, astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful, and that we are a small and insignificant part of the universe. What does it tell you, Holmes?" "Watson, you idiot!" he exclaims, "Somebody's stolen our tent!"[/quote]

Is it really that hard to take the keys out of the ignition?

He was on a super mission to travel from Mexico all the way across America by stolen vehicles just to sell an ounce of marijuana he had in his backpack.

sounds like something out of a bad cartoon

[QUOTE=The Law]Amend Art. 5, Div. 3, Sec. 38-175 (Revised Municipal Code) (a) It shall be unlawful for any person UNDER THE AGE OF TWENTY-ONE (21) to possess one (1) ounce or less of marihuana. If such person is under the age of eighteen (18) years of age at the time of the offense, no jail sentence shall be imposed and any fine imposed may be supplanted by treatment as required by the court.

Oh ok, I didn't know that :D
