A man who called police in East Hartford Connecticut Monday seems to have lost sight of his priorities.
He reported he'd paid money for goods never received, presumably hoping they would chase down the guilty parties.
But authorities were more interested in the fact that the man was trying to purchase crack cocaine at the time of the theft, and charged him with criminal attempt to commit possession of narcotics.
The Judge at his arraignment reportedly asked if he "really thought" police would go after those who'd done him wrong. Prosecutors later dropped the charges.
The man had been ripped off a total of eight dollars.
Stupid is as stupid does???
