This just in: when you want to vandalize someone’s house, the best way to escape is NOT dousing yourself in Pepto-Bismol and leaving your clothes and ID at the scene of the crime. Police in Waterville, ME, arrested a man after he allegedly broke into and vandalized a home, leaving his pants, shirt, sneakers and wallet behind.
Authorities said that they received a call about a young man dressed in his underwear jumping on the hood of a Volkswagen car outside of where a local party was taking place.
Witnesses said the young man broke into a neighboring house before breaking the windshield of the VW outside. Police discovered that the man had also broken the front glass door of the home, overturned furniture in the house, and broke the back door. Before leaving, he removed and abandoned all of his clothing, except his underwear. Police found the man’s wallet and driver’s license in the pocket of his discarded pants at the vandalized house. The drunk 20-year-old was found back at the local party, covered with a pink substance believed to be Pepto-Bismol. He now faces charges of burglary, aggravated criminal mischief and possession of alcohol by a minor.
