Clumsy Thieves in Australia
The SAS (Special Air Service) are Australia’s elite troops, highly respected by all other militaries and currently deployed in Afghanistan alongside New Zealand and US forces (and other places that they try to keep secret)
PERTH (Australia) – An SAS trooper collecting toys for children was stabbed when he helped stop a suspected shoplifter in east Perth.
The ‘Toys-R-Us’ Store Manager told ‘The West Australian’ that man was seen on
surveillance cameras last Friday putting a laptop under his jacket at the store.
When confronted, the man became irate, knocked down an employee, pulled a knife and ran toward the door.
Outside were four SAS Troopers collecting toys for the “Toys For Tots” program.
Smith said the Troopers stopped the man, but he stabbed one of them, in the back.
The cut did not appear to be severe.
The suspect was transported by ambulance to the Royal Perth Hospital with two
broken arms, a broken leg, possible broken ribs, multiple contusions and assorted lacerations including a broken nose and jaw…
Injuries he apparently sustained when he tripped whilst trying to run from the Troopers.
OH DEAR ! CLUMSY BASTARD !!!
[ED. I should add that the term BASTARD is normally used widely in Australian culture, and does not always have a negative connotation. But it does in this particular example.]

The story is totally false. It has been altered from the actual incident which happened on November 26th 2010 in a Best Buy shop in Augusta, Georgia in the USA. It involved 4 marines who apprehended a man trying to steal a computer. Nobody was injured.
Justice prevails! Sweet!
Clumsy bastard!! I remember a similar incident that took place many, many years ago when an equally clumsy bastard was hospitalized for stabbing a cop, in the presence of other cops. Yes. Clumsy bastards both of these guys.
