NOT SUCH A BRIGHT SPARK AFTER ALL

LegalView's DumbJustice - Dumb Criminal

After a power black out that affected 795 customers in Derbyshire, England, engineers found a hacksaw embedded in a live 11,000 voltage cable. By its side was a lit blowtorch. The way things were left suggests that whoever had been holding the hacksaw made a quick getaway - disappeared in a puff of smoke perhaps.

A public service organization, Crimestoppers, is offering a $200 reward. I imagine that the culprit will have spiky hair and will be able to illuminate light bulbs just like Uncle Festus did, just by putting them in his mouth.
