These Things Happen To Other People. They Don’t Happen At All, In Fact.

Following up on yesterday’s [Napoleon] Lucky! [/Napoleon] comes [Napoleon] Idiot! [/Napoleon], as the two guys who found buried treasure in their backyard are arrested for theft.

Crebase told investigators the men found the money in the gutter of a barn they were hired to repair, police said.

“We got an anonymous tip two days ago,” Capt. Kris McCarthy told the Eagle-Tribune newspaper of Lawrence. “These guys are roofers. They found the money on the job site. They story after that was all made up.”
