Who Would Steal a Man’s Cologne?

By: Mr. Wilson on April 11, 2012

I subscribe to Crime Mapping so I receive the occasional email describing any reported crimes in my neighborhood. It's a nifty little service for keeping tabs on the neighborhood. For example, over the past couple days there have been several thefts out of unlocked vehicles not far from my house. It's nice to know that sort of thing. But yesterday the thieves went too far. In my inbox this morning was this report:

TAKEN FROM VEHICLE PARKED IN DRIVEWAY AXE SPRAY COLOGNE

I can't figure out which is more amusing: that somebody would steal a can of Axe, or that somebody would call the police to report it stolen.

Maybe the guy’s girlfriend or wife didn’t like the smell of Axe cologne, and she just hid it from him.

You got the real question there. I mean I have probably had more money taken from me by forgetting to pay my credit card bill on time. Who calls the cops over a less than $5 Axe body spray? What moron wastes an hour out of their day doing that? And what LPD officer files this report? Really officer…if you show up and someone claims $5 is missing…you get back in the car and leave. Hard to believe an officer was dispatched for this. His or her’s time alone is worth WAY more than this.

Of course that being said…I am VERY HAPPY I live in a city that on a Tuesday this is considered breaking news. 😊

They should just look for a dude that suddenly has chicks flying at him from all directions.
