It’s still very early on in the year but I think we might have the dumbest crime story in Texas for the entire year. We all know that breaking the law is not a good idea but one man decided that he needed to learn that lesson the hard way. 

Details on the Dumbest Texas Criminal This Year 

According to KVUE, the incident took place in Lakeway, Texas when a man tried stealing an unmarked police car full of police officers.  

The story might seem like something out of a movie. I can assure you that the charges are no laughing matter. 

Police Were Investigating the Subject Already 

Law enforcement was already well aware of the suspect and knew that he loved to steal vehicles. Which is why they were watching him, waiting to see if he was going to attempt to steal another vehicle. 

After exiting the residence, the subject approached the unmarked police vehicle and attempted to gain entry into the vehicle.

What Happened When the Suspect Tried to Steal the Vehicle with Officers Inside? 

As you would expect the officers jumped into action quickly and after a brief chase the man was arrested. 

He is now facing charges which include tampering with evidence and engaging in organized criminal activity.  

Let this be a lesson to everyone in Texas, law enforcement is paying attention and if you break the law, you will be forced to pay the consequences. 

Just like in all court cases, all subjects are innocent until proved guilty in a court of law.
