HOW DUMB IS DUMB

About a week ago someone, the police didn't know who, stole a car and ran it into Hobart High school then that person stole another car and ran that car into the school again destroying a priceless 1877 Victory Bell. Police had no clues who did. Was it a boy, girl, adult or teenager.

Now comes the dumb part. It was a boy, a 19 year old who couldn't keep his mouth shut about doing it. Someone overheard him "bragging" about his stunt and this person made an anonymous phone call to the police and passed on what he had heard. The tip lead to the arrest of Justin Koon. He told police that he had broken into 20 to 30 cars looking for money to buy the drug Xanax. He told police the cars he stole had keys in them. How smart is that. Those people deserved to have their cars stolen. With the first car he drove to the back of the school and drove it into a concrete school sign. The second car he went to the back of the school and backed that car through a door in the school. He then drove to the front and and crashed it into the Victory Bell. He left the cars and walked away. If you don't know what the drub Xanax is, I didn't, it is a drug to treat panic disorders and anxiety. How about a drug for being dumb. Police said that if he hadn't bragged about this incident that probably would never found out who did it. Just look at his picture in the paper. That tells the whole story.
