Police in Memphis, Tennessee are looking for two suspects who stole a 2009 Mercedes-Benz E350 at gunpoint last week only to returned it the next day.
The victim told officers that two men walked up to him in his Parkrose Ave. driveway on November 9 and pointed a gun at him, according to the Memphis Police Department on Facebook. After that, the guy did the smart thing and ran away, and the two suspects drove off in the 15-year-old Benz. It was a pretty standard car jacking through that point, but the next day things got weird. I don’t know if it was a change of heart or the guys just didn’t need the car anymore, but they brought the damn thing back and parked it right in the victim’s driveway like nothing ever happened, the post says. This is absolutely bizarre – and sort of hilarious – behavior.
Unfortunately for the two thieves, the police aren’t adhering to the “no harm, no foul” rule, so they are looking for the suspects. Honestly, it was probably a bad move by them to return the car, because one of the guys was caught on camera when they were doing the good deed.
The first was last seen wearing jeans and a blue and gray hoodie, and the second was wearing back jeans, a black jacket with a black hood and a black backpack. He was the guy with the gun too. Odds are these guys have changed their clothes since November 9, but if you see them, let Memphis police know at 901-528-CASH.
At this point, the reason they stole and returned the car is between the thieves and God. No good deed goes unpunished, does it?
