Yes Virginia, The AP Used "Turd Burglar" In A Sentence

Thief Steals Poop From Woman Walking Dog

By Associated Press

SAN DIEGO - The hunt is on for a turd burglar. Police in San Diego are searching for a gunman who swiped a bag of poop from a woman out walking her dog.

The woman told police that she was out walking her dog, Misty, on Monday night when a man in his 20s ran up behind her and grabbed the bag she was holding.

When the gunman discovered what was in it, he threw it down in disgust, pointed his gun at the 32-year-old woman and demanded money, San Diego police detective Gary Hassen said.
He then aimed his .22-caliber semiautomatic at Misty and pulled the trigger twice but the gun didn't fire, Hassen said.

The robber ran to a waiting small, silver car and fled the scene, police said.

Maybe she should have just taken a cue from Jenn and chucked at him, in a arching graceful left hook.

Ha ha. Yes. Good times.

I can't help imagining the awesome double take this guy did when he opened up the bag. Or maybe he simply reached his hand in. Either way, it's comedy gold.
