What kind of people do you imagine when you think of
criminals? If you watch a lot of crime programmes
or films on TV, you probably imagine people who are very intelligent but bad. A
lot of criminals never get caught. Which means it’s difficult for the police to
catch them.
These people do exist, of course, but many criminals
are not as smart as they often seem on TV. There are many stories of real-life
crimes where the police don’t have to do very much to
catch the criminal.
For example, a man and a woman were robbing a shop in
Texas, in the USA. The man was pointing a gun at the shop assistant, who was
putting the money into a bag. While this was happening, the woman noticed an
entry form for a competition on the counter. The prize was a lot of money, so
she entered the competition. On the form, she wrote her name and address. As
you can imagine, it didn’t take long for police to catch them.
In New York, a gang of thieves stole several expensive
cars from a garage. Unfortunately for the criminals, one of them dropped his
wallet at the scene of the crime. It didn’t take the police long to find the
cars and arrest the whole gang.
As you can see many criminals not as smart as people
think they are. Also in many cases they were just unlucky.

• One of the criminals left personal information on the entry form for a competition.
• The shop assistant had a gun.
• The police came to the scene of a crime too quickly.
• One of the robbers lost a wallet at the scene of the crime.
