LINCOLN, Neb. – Police in Nebraska are looking a man who stole cigarettes while disguising himself with a beer carton on his head.

Lincoln police Capt. Bob Kawamoto says the man walked into a Kwik Shop convenience store before dawn Monday wearing an empty Bud Light box on his head as a mask.

Kawamoto says the man also had wrapped something around one of his hands, suggesting he was armed. But the man never showed a weapon.

Police said the bandit left with nine packs of smokes valued at nearly $50.

Police spokeswoman Katie Flood said Tuesday morning that the robbery was captured on video. She said the man also dropped the empty 12-pack box as he fled, and it will be checked for fingerprints.

That is pretty funny.
Though, if he had a cigarette carton on his head and he was stealing beer...

Hey, at least he recycled the beer carton.

What would he have done if he had drank only a six pack?

Hey, he's smarter, not by much though, then the Duct Tape Bandit.
