How Did A Burglary Go Wrong At A Detroit Car Dealership?

How did a burglary go wrong at a Detroit car dealership? Well, in many ways, actually. A lot went wrong for the set of thieves here.

Believe it or not, there are some unspoken rules for pulling off a burglary. You're going to want to be quiet. That's important. You want to be sneaky and not let anyone know what you're up to. Additionally, you want to have a smooth getaway planned. That's just as important as the robbery itself. No smooth getaway, no executed robbery. Finally, you're going to want to leave with all the people you came with. That's super important. No man left behind. One person left behind could mean the end for everybody. Unfortunately (for them), all of these things went wrong for these burglars at a Detroit car dealership.

These thieves didn't follow those unspoken rules we talked about earlier. Not at all. Instead, they made a ton of noise (not what you're supposed to do). They even crashed their truck into a pole. However, that's not all. They also lost a man and a gun during their getaway. Surely, not what they wanted to happen.

You can see a video report on the incident shared by Click On Detroit on YouTube below. Doesn't seem like they're the brightest or most experienced criminals around. What do you think?

According to Click On Detroit, the men even got into an argument during their robbery. Again, not what you're supposed to do! You can wait for that. Arguing right then and there can't be the best idea. The incident reportedly happened at Giovanni's Auto Sales on Tireman Avenue in Detroit. The whole thing was captured at camera, but the 3 suspects do remain at large.

It's a surprise that they're still at large given how they seem to have botched the robbery in many ways. Their loud entry certainly was not the best way to start. They immediately backed into a cement pole outside of the gates. Then it took them a minute to cut through the iron gate. Guards were on scene and alerted the owner to what was happening and they were advised not to take action so nobody would get hurt. It appears that the men were there for converters from the cars that they could then sell for scrap. When the group started arguing, one of the guards shouted, "what are you doing?" per Click On Detroit. That sent them panicking into their truck where they attempted to get away but one of the three men fell out of the car and almost got run over! Then, one of them dropped a gun in the middle of the street so they had to return later to pick it up. Not smooth.

Hopefully law enforcement is able to find the 3 suspects soon.

While committing crimes may seem black and white (you either broke the law or you didn't), there are certainly some crimes that are dumber than others. Sometimes it's the crime itself that's wild, other times, it's the people committing said crimes. These are 5 of the craziest, cringeworthy crimes ever committed.

Crimes can happen anywhere, anytime, to anyone. However, it takes a very unique individual, a case study if you will, to commit some of these outrageously dumb crimes. Years ago, these criminals would have been featured on Spike TV or one of those America's Dumbest Criminal shows. Today, I'm not sure if those shows are around...and I'm certain Spike TV isn't around anymore. That's a story for another time.

Crimes can happen for a number of reasons. They may happen out of necessity. They could also happen on accident. These crimes, however, do not fall into those categories. These crimes are different. None of these would accidentally happen. They also aren't a matter of life or death. There's no ethics quiz here, or any matters of 'would you steal bread to support your family?' These crimes, and criminals, aren't straight up cringeworthy.

While all of these crimes are crazy and certainly cringeworthy, they also make for excellent conversation pieces. That's why I've gone and found five examples of the wildest stories that Dave and Chuck the Freak have talked about and made a list highlighting the best of the best. Let's be honest...what's better than reading a story about one of the craziest crimes ever committed? Or, watching Dave and Chuck the Freak talk about some of the dumbest crimes ever committed? Personally, I'm going with the funny storytellers.

They add their own two cents and perspectives on these stories that nobody else could provide. Not even those talking heads on the dumbest criminal shows. Am I the only one who remembers those? I feel like they were a staple on TruTV or VH1, but now all I can find on TruTV is Impractical Jokers, which is awesome but...you get it. Let's not delay! Here's the list!

Dave & Chuck the Freak talk about a man in Wisconsin who was arrested after lighting his own car on fire and being found naked, covered in liquid soap near a lakae. He is supposedly a licensed psychotherapist, works with 'magic mushrooms' and is "pretty much an expert in magic."

Dave & Chuck the Freak hear about a new Amazon vendor scam involving glue guns and head-lamps, or a potential windfall if you're James.

Dave & Chuck the Freak talk about a man in Dearborn, Michigan who exposed himself to someone at a Burlington Coat Factory. They are very confused when they learn about their hours and huge social media following. Then, they try to figure out what they even sell there.

Dave & Chuck the Freak talk about a man in Las Vegas, Nevada who stripped nude and danced on the gaming tables before he was restrained and arrested. Vegas, baby...

Dave & Chuck the Freak talk about a man in Illinois who accidentally shot himself in the leg whilst dreaming of burglars breaking into his house. Living the proverbial dream isn't always what it seems...
