SAN DIEGO - The hunt is on for a different kind of burglar.
Police in San Diego are searching for a gunman who swiped a bag of poop from a woman out walking her dog.
The woman told police that she was out walking her dog, Misty, on Monday night when a man in his 20s ran up behind her and grabbed the bag she was holding.
When the gunman discovered what was in it, he threw it down in disgust, pointed his gun at the 32-year-old woman and demanded money, San Diego police detective Gary Hassen said.
He then aimed his .22-caliber semiautomatic at Misty and pulled the trigger twice but the gun didn't fire, Hassen said.
The robber ran to a waiting small, silver car and fled the scene, police said.
It is a crappy story.
Got to run.

Misleading title. Although it's of little consequence in this case, the title of this article goes to show how the media likes to distort things- the title suggests him actually taking the poop and making off with it, whereas in reality he got rid of it and demanded money.
No Sh&t!
Oh, he was the mastermind I'm sure. He was banned from FR, and I've never learned why, but his screen name was Turd Ferguson(not his real last name). The boy has an obsession with poopie.
Maybe he was Shi'ite..
ok, I can't top that ...
"A thief in training?????"
Yah, but he didn't get S##t....
Anyone from the city knows the schtick. Someone tries to steal your pooper-scoop bag, you light it up, throw it on the ground and yell "fire". While the thief is trying to put it out and clean off his shoe, you run. Obviously, this woman was a non-smoker and didn't have her lighter available.
See post 89. After I posted it, read yours, I knew you from the city.
"your gun says replica down the side of the barre'ahl wherreas mine says desert eagle five oh"
best scene in that movie...
