Stupid Criminal: A Man Used a Machete to Steal a Cinnamon Bun and Incense

Have you heard the phrase, “the punishment doesn’t fit the crime”?  Well sometimes, the WEAPON doesn’t fit the crime.

A 33-year-old man in North Carolina named Jeffrey Bradburn was arrested after he went into a grocery store on Monday afternoon, with a MACHETE, and stole a cinnamon bun and some incense.  (Which is a little random.)

The store called the police, and they tracked him down.  He was eating the cinnamon bun at the time.  It’s unclear if he used the machete to cut it in half first.

Jeffrey was charged with robbery with a dangerous weapon, shoplifting, and possession of drug paraphernalia.  He’s being held on a $50,000 bond.

(Here’s his mugshot.)
