Gardener Goes After Guy With A Weed Wacker
Watch as a gardener goes after a guy with a weed wacker! That’s definitely one way to attempt to stop a thief! Anything around you can be used as a weapon during a situation like this, and a weed wacker could do some serious damage!
I would stop in my tracks if someone came at me with a Weed Wacker. Did it stop this thief? Let’s find out!
Gardener Goes After Guy With A Weed Wacker
According to ABC 13, one of several suspects is now in custody after an encounter with a yard worker whose equipment he’s been accused of stealing–and it was all caught on camera.
The incident happened in Harris County, Texas. ABC 13 reports that four suspects were driving separate vehicles and allegedly stole several pieces of the worker’s equipment from the tailgate of his truck. In a video from the scene, you can see the suspects trying to get away in a car, but the worker quickly responds by throwing a Weed Wacker at them to stop them. It does cause one of the suspects to fall out of the car.
In the video, the worker chases the fallen suspect with the garden equipment before being joined by a neighbor to subdue the suspect. It’s a crazy sight! The fallen suspect has been identified as Jarrell Alexander. He’s since been charged with aggravated robbery, per ABC 13.
Law enforcement is now looking to identify the other suspects involved in the scene. An investigation is currently underway. I can’t imagine being chased by one of those! They are insanely sharp and dangerous. I would drop everything, apologize, and hope to leave with all my limbs and appendages.
Check out the video of the incident below, shared by WFAA on YouTube! It’s a crazy scene. I can’t understand how he was able to remove the suspect from the car with that throw!
5 of the Craziest Cringeworthy Crimes Ever Committed
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.

Craziest Crimes
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!
