File this under: Too dumb to be at large. Sorry, no link, it was on AOLNews.

LITTLE ROCK - An Arkansas man was arrested after police followed a trail of evidence from a bungled bank heist -- discarded wrappers from candy he allegedly stole and ate as he made his getaway, police said on Saturday.

"It's a classic," said Patrolman Jerry Lung of the Marked Tree police department, who arrested Michael Brown, 33. Marked Tree is a small community about 135 miles (215 km) northeast of Little Rock.

Brown allegedly smashed the glass door of a bank in the community, and then looked directly at the bank's security cameras, Lung said. He also triggered an alarm.

When Brown found that all the money had been stashed away because the bank was closed, he allegedly stole a clock radio and fistfuls of candy, police said.

As he left the facility, he ate the candy and left a trail of wrappers that led to his home in a nearby trailer park.

Brown was arraigned on Friday on robbery and other charges and remains in jail pending trial. Bail was set at $25,000.

"It was almost like he wanted to be caught," Lung said Saturday.

The candy allegedly stolen from the bank was "Dum-Dums," the police officer said.

I still like the one about the Italien burglar who broke into a masnion, got £500,000 in notes, and got lost.

He then woke the owners up and asked them the way out.
