Someone I know is working on this criminal case. It seems this person would call up a cab on his cell phone, have the cab come to his house, he would then rob the cab at gunpoint, and then go back into his house.
He was actually surprised when the police arrived at his door. Yes, he did the robberies from his own house and call the cab companies with his own cell phone.
I won't tell you what field my friend is in, but you might be able to guess.

ROFLMAO!!!
I'm always astounded at the cars they find carrying a load of narcotics - because they got pulled over for speeding/taillight out/not signaling, etc..... one would *think* that you'd NOT want to attract law enforcement's attention if you're carrying a lot of drugs....

There was a situation that happened many years ago when I was working in Dallas. One of the streets by downtown Dallas, Industrial, is lined with beer stops and liquor stores. Across the river is Oak Cliff, at the time "dry", no liquor or beer sales in the area.
One day I was out for lunch and saw a very strange site in the middle of the day. It seemed that some "enterprising individuals" decided to steal a beer truck while it was unloading at one of the beer stops on Industrial.
These "enterprising individuals" drove the beer truck back across the river to an apartment complex in Oak Cliff and proceeded to unload the beer truck in the middle of the day. Two patrol cars of Dallas's finest were leaving the diner when I was and looked down the street to see them wheeling cases of beer into apartment and just shook their heads. 
They left the parking lot with lights flashing and busted the guy. A couple of days later I talked to one of the officers at the same diner and she said "They weren't too smart pulling a beer truck into a dry area of Dallas in the middle of the day, the truck kind of stuck out like a sore thumb."
I guess they (the criminals) didn't think about their area being dry and a beer truck would stand out just a little bit.
