A bitter surprise was in store for this butter-fingered crook.
Security footage obtained by The Post on Sunday shows a man stumbling into a Coney Island Dunkin’ Donuts and Baskin-Robbins and dropping a gun — right in front of a trio of NYPD officers who just happened to be in the fast food restaurant.

Yeah, cops just happened to be in a donut shop................
One of the two funniest movies of all time, along with “Blazing Saddles.” In really loved the interviews with Gerald Starkwell’s parents.
Great genius FReepers think alike. Thanks.

Cops at a donut shop. What are the odds?
Nervous robber:
“All right you mother stickers...this a F up!”
It made me think of the Joey Nickels scene in “Annie Hall”.
The scene where Virgil meticulously cuts a hole in the window, only to steal the hole, kills me just thinking about it.
LOLOL!
Cops in a donut shop - who would have imagined it ...
Reminds me of a Steven Wright joke...
“I went down to the 24-hour grocery. When I got there, the guy was locking the front door.
I said, 'Hey, the sign says you’re open 24 hours.
He said, 'Yes, but not in a row.”
OKAY to the headline brought up a memory that might have been created when I was in high school... something about a girl friend and I had to walk past her dad, who was dozing in the recliner, in their tiny living room, in order to get out of the house. We were going to a party.
A bottle of alcohol might have slipped out of her or my hands (can’t remember), onto the floor, right in front of him, and woke him up....
“a trio of NYPD officers who just happened to be in the fast food restaurant...”
Oh sure, the police “just happened” to be at the donut shop. Funny how that works.
A true story
A really stupid bank robber goes into bank x with the intent to rob. Takes withdrawal slip from the table and writes a robbery note for the teller. The line is too long and he gets tired of waiting, so he goes to bank y across the street and hands his poorly written note to the teller. the teller realizes this guy is not too bright due to the spelling errors and hands the note back to the would be robber telling him that the note was written on a withdrawal slip from the other back and they could note honor it at their bank. The robber goes back across the street to stand in line until the police arrive.
Funny.
The common criminal. Can’t do without ‘em.
I love stupid crook stories and that one’s right up there ... thanks for the giggle!
I sort of have to sympathize with the doofus in that it looks like the pistol started to slip down from his waist band just as he was entering the store and he frantically grabbed for it while it was heading south. Good thing the cops weren’t so convulsed by laughter that they couldn’t catch him.
Or the bank robber who wrote his
hold-note on the back of one of
his deposit slips.
While he grabbed at the gun he had to choose wisely about dropping it or accidentally hitting the trigger.
One Peter Sellers Inspector Clouseau scene had him hit himself hard in the crotch with a swiveling light enclosure or something.
He started talking in a high falsetto voice immediately.
