Dumb Criminals: Swedish Crooks Steal $1300 Of Ben & Jerry's, Surprised To Find It Melted

The two thieves struck a truck parked outside a wholesale centre in Gävle on Sweden's east coast on Tuesday morning, but a security guard noticed the pair mid-heist and gave chase.

The thieves dumped their stolen treats during the getaway, but the guard managed to catch one of them, an 18-year-old man, while his accomplice escaped.

"As I understand it, all the ice cream was still (in the bags). And a lot of it had melted so it had to be thrown away," Mikael Hedström, spokesman for the Gävle police, told the Aftonbladet newspaper.
