Guy Algar and I had a laugh over this one. As if carjackers don't get enough attention for the sometimes lame-brain moves they make, one story making headlines today is being billed as the "lamest carjacking ever."



"Carjacker" Allegedly Stole
Boy's Remote Control Car

 35 year old Efrain Burgos-Delgado allegedly went up to a 16 year old Kissimmee, Florida boy on Saturday evening and held up the boy at gunpoint. After first taking a remote control car, the thief fled, then returned to take the boy's cell phone! 

Burgos-Delgado was apprehended by police, and allegedly told them that he had sold the car to buy drugs. The cell phone was still in his possession, giving police pretty good evidence.

The alleged "carjacker" was reported to have been charged with armed robbery, aggravated assault, false imprisonment, grand theft, dealing in stolen property, petty theft and resisting without violence according to the Sun Sentinel.

So what do you think? Does this rein as the "lamest carjacking ever", or do you have a story you'd like to share? Please let us know!
