Stealing StupidityHE robbed a house, then led police right to him.A burglar reportedly broke into a house in the town of Overtornea, Sweden, stealing a mobile phone and other items. When the cops called the cell phone’s number, he apparently answered it but failed to hang up.Authorities could hear him swearing about the late arrival of a taxi he’d called for to take him to a neighbouring town. The activated phone provided a tracking device of sorts for authorities. Maybe instead of hanging the cabbie out to dry, he should have simply hung up.
