UNITED KINGDOM: The headline reads, “He’s sheet out of luck.” A very stupid bank robber was foiled when he forgot to cut eyeholes in his pillowcase mask, then had to take it off because he couldn’t see. Matthew Davies, 47, stormed the Bank of Scotland in Dumfermline with a meat cleaver and demanded cash before peeling off the makeshift mask. A bank customer followed him home and called police. Davies has now pleaded guilty to robbery. What an Idiot…

The pair said no one got sick because no one ate the pepper or the frog. So Bizarre.
