A heavyset man in his thirties apparently decided to take up a new sport on a late Saturday afternoon when he made his way into a local golf shop. Inside, he chatted up employees about getting into the game then took a stroll over to the clubs. It likely wasn’t until the man saw some of the price tags that he realized that golf is an expensive game. And so there was apparently only one option: slide a club down his sweatpants and walk out of the store. Of course, security stopped him before he could slink out and hit the greens with his not-so-hidden wood.

It was supposedly just a day’s work for a couple of painters trolling the neighborhood streets, but a resident thought the man and woman were nothing but suspicious: twenty- and thirtysomethings dressed in dark clothing and peering into parked cars. The homeowner decided to ask the two what they were doing before he called the police and they responded on point—they were looking for houses to paint. What kept the resident a disbeliever, though, was the clothes, he said, as they weren’t wearing the usual paint-splattered white pants.
