Maybe he was just trying to be hip.

I forgot to add... he was still “armed”.

Yup, with this kind of evidence he surely will be going to the “joint”.

He always seemed like such a stand-up guy. (This one’s a stretch,I admit)

He will probably rehab in jail as a one-legged punter.

the police should have let him put the leg back on and giving him a head start.

This just in.......

robbers broke into a local police station and stole all the toilets. A police spokesman says they have nothing to go on.

I know I'm going out on a limb with this story......

A man with a wooden eye was very shy and didn't go out much. A friend tried to talk him into going to a local dance.

The man said, " I don't want to go - people will just make fun of my wooden eye."

The friend finally convinced him to go.

While at the dance, the man with the wooden eye just sat back in a corner and refused to ask any of the ladies to dance. His friend finally said, "Why not go over and ask that girl with the peg leg sitting in the corner to dance. Surely SHE won't make fun of your eye."

The man finally got up enough courage to go over and ask the girl.

He walked up to her and said, " Would you care to dance with me?"

The girl looked up and replied, "Oh wouldn't I, wouldn't I."

The man shouted back, "Peg Leg! Peg Leg!"

Gives new meaning to the phrase “armed and dangerous”!
