Two Brooklyn thieves were caught mid-robbery after confusing a bathroom for an exit. The would-be robbery took place at Gourmet Buffalo Deli, and NYPD officers Mark Xylas and Favio Quizhpi found the two suspects beating an employee. When they yelled "POLICE! DROP YOUR GUNS!" both men made a break for what they believed was the exit. Unfortunately, both suspects made the stupid mistake of trying to escape through the deli's clearly-marked bathroom. After realizing that their stupidity had cost them their freedom, both men dropped their guns and were arrested. Police confiscated a .32 caliber Rossi revolver and a .45 caliber Hi-point semi-automatic weapon. 20-year-old Isaiah Henderson and 23-year-old James Gillespie were charged with criminal possession of a weapon, unlawful imprisonment, menacing and robbery.

Some people just never cease to amaze.

That is too funny. It just goes to show that crooks aren't too bright.

That video is hilarious. Putting all of their energy to kick the door down, when there's a bathroom sign right in front of them.

First the failed assassination attempt. Now this? I'm convinced that criminals are getting even stupider these days.

This is why you scout the area prior to robbing it.

My assumption is that they were hoping that there was a window in the bathroom, because the two police officers were just outside of the exit; they had no where else to go. I watched the video.

that sounds about as dumb as this actually after watching the video this wasn't what I expected, the front door was already blocked when they went to leave, they simply went back and tried exhausting their options before giving up anyhow, you should feel bad TC, it's one thing when people on YouTube mislabel videos but this is OT and our standards here are... wait, nevermind

Watching him force his way through the door, despite the fact that it clearly opened the other way...

I bellowed heartily.
