Yahoo! News - Mich. Suspect Caught After Syrup Spill: "JACKSON, Mich. - A robbery attempt at an ice cream store resulted in a not-so-sweet ending for a would-be thief who authorities say knocked over a large container of strawberry syrup.
According to police, the 24-year-old Jackson man dropped his wallet and apparently slipped in the goo during the break-in early Monday.
'It was kind of a giveaway,' Jackson County sheriff's Capt. David Luce said.
A deputy responding to a 12:24 a.m. alarm at TJ's Dairy Freeze located a wallet inside and found a jug of syrup spilled on the floor. It was unclear if anything was taken.
The deputy used an ID in the wallet to track down and arrest the suspect.
'He still had strawberry syrup all over him,' Luce told The Jackson Citizen Patriot.
The suspect was to be arraigned later Monday on a charge of breaking and entering. "
