A mentally challenged Florida man who had saved up for months to purchase a copy of "Grand Theft Auto V" was robbed of the video game as he left a GameStop store this week, police report. After buying the game Tuesday afternoon, Rohan Dawkins was approached in a Delray Beach parking lot by a couple who pulled up in a car. After asking Dawkins for the time, Tommy Davis, 27, grabbed the bag containing the best-selling game, which was released this week. When Dawkins sought to retrieve the item, Adele Jones, 25, allegedly kicked and punched the 21-year-old Dawkins ~The Smoking Gun

The victim was black, as were the offenders, who are the parents of four children. When captured, the robbers were visibly contrite, telling police that they had intended to rob a white person and only went ahead with the crime against Dawkins because they needed new tires for their car.

Dumb criminals, if they worked in a bank they'd be stealing pens.

So they were going to sell the game to somebody and buy, like, 1/2 of a tire?

Once again the "terminally stupid" gene rears its all too common head.

At this rate, criminals will be borrowing plans from Wile E. Coyote in a month!

I honestly can't think of anything to say.

I'm glad Dawkins is getting a new copy of the game.

Sounds like Dawkins isn't the only mentally challenged one here.

1. They intended to only rob a Caucasian. When Dawkins approached the car, they could see he was black, and yet followed through.
2. They decided to try returning the stolen game to a place with surveillance.
3. When caught, they made a gratuitous racist comment that will prejudice anyone against them but racist blacks, which I sincerely hope are a minority in the jury pool.
4. They cannot afford tires but have enough money for four children?
