Retard much?

In Hickory, North Carolina cops were able to solve in record time the mystery of the two cash registers taken from the Captain's Galley restaurant. When they were looking around, they discovered a long trail of white registry tape. They followed it for about 50 yards to an apartment, where they found the thief trying to pry the registers open.

What I wanna know is, when he went into the room and turned around to close the door, how did he NOT see the tape that was on the floor leading all the way back to the restaurant. He probably thought that by the time he got back the police would already be there and so tried to get it open and run away before the police got there. Well, that obviously failed. With a ph. PHAILED.

OK so what do you guys think about this? Where would you go if you had 2 stolen cash registers? Your house? Your friend's house? The sewers? Tell me in the comments! Oh and one thing if you want awesomeness click here:AWESOMENESS :)
