A disrupted newscast and a lame hiding place are among the weirdest crime stories of the week:
- Live TV Report Interrupted by Someone Unexpected: If a reporter is going to cut his segment short, "I need to call 911" is probably a good reason. KIMT journo Adam Sallet was reporting live outside a Rochester, Minn., bank when a bank employee came running out of the building. Among the words Sallet said next: "I gotta go here and call 911. I'll talk to you later."
- There's Something Strange About This Serial Car Thief: It might seem difficult to discern the thief in a grainy surveillance video, but police didn't have much trouble. After someone made off with an 89-year-old man's vehicle in St. Petersburg, Fla., police arrested a suspect they know pretty well: a 12-year-old who'd been arrested more than 20 times before, mostly for auto theft. Check out how the youngster allegedly fooled the elderly man.
