Mister Frag 0 Posted October 8, 2002 Sounds like these guys had a productive morning... From http://cbs2.com/water/StoryFolder/story_732652877_html All The Mounties Want Is A Sandwich! But They Keep Finding Stolen Cars Oct 8, 2002 4:47 am US/Pacific (AP)-(SURREY, British Columbia)-The Mounties got their men. What they had trouble getting was a sandwich. Royal Canadian Mounted Police Constable Ed Boettcher and his partner decided to take a sandwich break Monday while on surveillance duty in an unmarked car. At the restaurant, they checked the license plate on a car parked at a nearby pawn shop, found the car had been reported stolen, followed it and helped arrest the driver and passenger. Back they went to the sandwich joint, only to find a well-known car thief getting out of a pickup truck. Sure enough, a check of the license showed the truck had been stolen and they arrested the driver. On his third try, Boettcher finally got inside the sandwich shop, but his partner noticed two men carrying golf bags into the pawn shop. It turned out their car was also stolen and they were eventually arrested as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 28 Posted October 8, 2002 What I feel sorry for most is the sandwich, don't parents teach kids these days to understand the feelings of the sandwich instead of just laughing at them? This old fart is now off to bed, enough of trying to teach the world to sing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tovarish 0 Posted October 8, 2002 And the moral of the story is, if you live in BC,. make sure your car has a good anti-theft system installed . (Honeslty I think Vancouver has the highest rate of car thefts in Canada) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tex -USMC- 0 Posted October 8, 2002 Poor mounties... if they are anything like American cops, they would be in serious need of a sandwich (or a donut) after 1, let alone 3 arrests lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Frag 0 Posted October 9, 2002 One of my favorite ways of harrassing my friend Michael, who is a cop, is to say "Bad cop! No donut!" when he does something stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
