Hard-boiled criminals?

Apparently it was a slow day for crime in Chautauqua County. Four police agencies scrambled their forces to chase and arrest four guys who were driving around Jamestown throwing eggs at other cars. And it might not have been over easy without help from one of the victims.

A woman whose car was turned sunny side up by the bad guys decided she was no chicken….she turned her car around, chased the guys, and called 911 to let police know where they were headed. Faster than a three-minute egg, she had help. Jamestown and Ellicott police, New York State troopers, and Chautauqua County Sheriff’s deputies were in on the chase.

When they pulled the van over, the evidence was as plain as the yolk on your face…..inside, police reportedly found empty egg cartons along with a few eggs that missed out on the fun.

The four rotten eggs in the van, who are all from Jamestown, are charged with reckless endangerment and criminal mischief. It’s just too bad “Cops” didn’t have a crew in town for this one.
