Why rob the jewelry store when you can rob the robbers?

Although our legal team has asked me to write a disclaimer* here indicating that we do not condone the illicit taking of other people's property, we have to applaud the ingenuity of the second pair of thieves in this article. Rather than waste their time and effort planning how to rob a jewelry store without getting caught they put their effort into waiting until someone else robbed the jewelry store and planning how to rob them. Their efforts were, sadly, thwarted when the other thieves fought back and the police became involved, but they do get an 'A' for effort!

*Disclaimer: At the GNU Public Dictatorship we are nothing if not dedicated to maintaining law and order, and in no way is this post intended to imply otherwise. Our respect for the idea the second pair of thieves had is based solely on their ability to think outside the box (or, in this case, the store) and not on their avaricious motives or illegal activity.
