The Strange Tale of the Photo Booth Robber

A Chicago man in 2016 came up with a genius idea to strike it big by-wait for it-robbing an amusement arcade’s photo booth. He made away with a grand sum of $75 but the capper was the photo booth snapping a mugshot of the thief.

In fact, the booth snapped several pictures of guy ­which police promptly showed the public in an attempt to nab him.

Photo booths are designed to take pictures when someone tries to manipulate them or damage them in any way. Too bad the fellow forgot the golden rule behind every successful heist-wear a mask.
