The hometown paper goes into more detail.

This is the Gainesville Sun's read on the car thief who was too dumb to escape from a car, as was reported here, earlier.

In 19 years of law enforcement, Faulk said he has never seen anything this dumb - "not where the suspect was caught because of his own ignorance."

"Maybe he needs a new line of work. He's not very good at what he's doing now."

He was reportedly drunk at the time, so maybe he should consider becoming a pilot for America West.
