Watch: Australia's dumbest criminal? Man pulls on disguise in full view of service station cameras

May 1, 2018

Perth police shouldn't have too much trouble finding this robber, who was caught on CCTV pulling on his disguise in full view of the cameras.

The man is accused of stealing cash from a service station near Perth last month.

He ran through his options for hiding his face - first sunglasses and a hood - before deciding to go with the balaclava option.

Unfortunately, he failed to realise his choice was all in vain, as his face was seen clearly on camera.

Oops.
