Chicago Macy’s Thief Caught Wearing The Same Stolen Clothes

When it comes to thieves in Illinois, the majority of the time it's their own fault that they end up getting busted and going to jail.

Illinois Thief Gets Arrested When He Goes Back To The Scene Of The Crime

I would love to see a stat of criminals in Illinois and how they get caught after committing a crime. To be even more specific, I would like to also know how many of those arrested were busted because of their own stupidity. I'm going to say a lot. Especially when it comes to the important rule of not returning to the scene of the crime, but for some reason they still do it.

The first part of this story happened during the late-night hours on June 28th. Our suspect was spotted on security camera footage inside the Macy's store on State Street in Chicago. He picked out some new clothes and put them on. Then, he went to one of the restaurants and made himself a meal. After that, he took off. The police had no clues; the guy was off scot-free.

On August 3rd, the suspect returned to the scene of the crime. He was spotted by a security camera standing outside of the store. He was wearing the same clothes he stole from Macy's back in June. The police were called, and he was arrested. It was all his fault. If he doesn't go back, there's no way they'll catch him. I would call that an epic fail.
