Dumb Criminals: Two Men Rob Fast Food Joint, Trail Of Macaroni Salad Leads Cops Right To Them
A trail of macaroni salad led police investigators in Livingston County to three suspected burglars on Sunday.
Deputies of the Livingston County Sheriff's Office responded to a burglary at Build-A-Burger Restaurant in Mt. Morris at 6:30 a.m., after the owners reported their surveillance system and cash register were missing.
The investigation led police to the Greenway Trail, a hiking and biking path, where they found cash register parts, surveillance system parts, rubber gloves, loose change and "a steady trail of macaroni salad," according to a news release issued by the office.

Dumb Criminals: Lawn Mower Theif Drives New Mower Off Store Lot, Goes 10 Miles Before Getting Caught
LEXINGTON Driving a mower off the lot landed a Cozad man deep in the weeds with law enforcement.
Gursham D. Gillett, 49, was arrested Wednesday after allegedly stealing a riding lawn mower from Wal-Mart last weekend. He has been charged with one count of theft by shoplifting, a Class IV felony, and one count of criminal mischief, a Class II misdemeanor in Dawson County Court.
According to court records, police were notified of the theft of a Murray brand lawn mower from the Wal-Mart at 200 Frontier Street in Lexington early Saturday.
Security footage from early Saturday morning revealed that the suspect had entered the store and fueled up the lawn mower before cutting the retaining chain link fence where the mower was stored. He then fled on the mower, stopping to cut another fence on Interstate 80 before driving out of view of the camera.

Miley Cyrus, Joan Jett Start Charity Aimed At Homeless LGBT Youth
From bringing a homeless teen onstage at the MTV Video Music Awards to slamming the Indiana governor over the state's controversial religious freedom law, Miley Cyrus isn't afraid to tackle pressing social issues head on. With that in mind, the Bangerz singer has established the Happy Hippie Foundation, an organization that aims to bring awareness towards issues affecting homeless youth and other vulnerable populations such as the LGBT youth community.
To help raise funds and awareness for her new foundation, Cyrus has teamed with Facebook for the Backyard Sessions, which will find the singer teaming with another artist for a unique performance filmed in Cyrus' own backyard. Joan Jett, Ariana Grande, Against Me!'s Laura Jane Grace and Melanie Safka are among the artists who will collaborate with Cyrus for the sessions. Each video will debut exclusively on Facebook with an option to donate toward the Happy Hippie Foundation.
