Darren Durant, 46, of Floridawas named “the dumbest criminal in the world” by Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey after he shot a crossbow in his tracksuits and left the True Value store on February 6 without paying.
Durant, who used a crutch to walk, was seen watching footage of him steal a pair of cutting tools before moving to the crossbow section, and cut off the ties with a Ravin R10 crossbow zipper, which costs about $ 1,300.
Footage released by police shows the 46-year-old walking down the aisle, leaving his only crutch. He glanced over his shoulder before moving all in, tucked half his weapon into his pants, and pulled his jacket tight around the rest.

Darren Durant, 46, was caught on video surveillance hitting a $ 1,300 Ravin R10 crossbow in his Florida tracksuits on Feb. 6.

“Just when you think you’ve seen it all, this guy takes carrying a concealed weapon to a whole new level,” Ivy wrote on Facebook. “He proves to all of us that you can actually shove a crossbow in front of your pants !!”
Believe it or not, the man managed to get out the door, despite the poor hiding. He was caught two days later in a parking lot by nearby Walgreens, police said, and fled on foot.
The sheriff wrote, “Believe it or not, Durant actually ran away on foot when he spotted Deputy Lindo, although, as you can imagine, after seeing the video, he didn’t get very far!”
He was arrested on February 15 after the Brevard County Sheriff charged him with petty theft.
Durant is currently in custody at Seminoule County Jail on eight “unrelated burglary charges”, but will later face “Brevard County charges” of crossbow theft.
The sheriff’s office also said Durrent had two previous convictions for theft. And according to Seminol County Jail records, Durant is already in debt and has a $ 8,000 bond.
“You just can’t think of these things !!” the sheriff wrote on Facebook.
Durant will appear in court at 1:30 p.m. on April 12 on charges of burglary. It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post.

Security footage shows a man believed to be in his 20s wearing a Toronto Maple Leafs hat playing a guitar on a chair in a store before pushing an instrument into his wide gray tracksuit in front of him. three other people.
Pressing his neck down first, he can be seen in the video putting the guitar neck in his pants and the body of the instrument under his black coat before calmly picking up a nearby acoustic guitar to play. He then ran away from the store with another man.
