An unnamed newspaper carrier in Jacksonville, Fla., was
confronted by a man who said the carrier had forgotten to deliver his
newspaper. When the 56-year-old carrier asked the man for his address
to check his list, the man responded by pulling a gun. "Give me a
paper," he demanded at gunpoint. The carrier handed over a paper, then
called police. Officers found Christopher M. Cooper, 26, hiding in a
cooler at a gas station, a gun in his car, and marijuana in his pocket.
He was charged with armed robbery of the 50-cent paper, and drug
possession. (Jacksonville Times-Union)

The stupidity of some people just boggles the mind.
