Andre Bacon could have been a criminal genius. He walked into a woman's garage on the Northwest side of Chicago earlier this month and demanded she give him the keys to her 2012 Honda MDX. So far so good. The woman then ran inside, closed the garage door, and called the police. Ok, no problem. He should be able to work with this. Except he couldn't. Bacon was outsmarted and "trapped" inside until the police arrived. 

We don't know what's more shocking here: the fact that Bacon couldn't figure out how to open the garage door, or that, upon realizing he was utterly doomed, he decided to chill out in the driver's seat. A criminal genius Bacon is not.
