The case of the stolen Homer Simpson
(38 votes)

ImageHere's a piece of non-tech news from Malaysia that made its way to the International Herald Tribune to lighten up your day.  2 Malaysian college students couldn't wait till July 26 for The Simpsons movie and decided to steal a Homer Simpson figurine from a Simpson family life-size portrait.  The students should have known better - closed-circuit security cameras caught the rascals making away with Homer (see picture).  Not only were their faces caught on film, so was their car number plates.  It wasn't long then before the police caught them and made them return Homer.  

No harm done in the end.  20th Century Fox representative Moo Hon Mei told AP that Homer would be reunited with the rest of his dysfunctional family shortly.  The police haven't yet decided if the rascals would be charged with theft. 

Update 22 June: Digg this
