MAPLEWOOD, Minn. (AP) - A woman suspected in a burglary found a convenient getaway: the squad car of the officers who arrested her.

 

McKenzie Schafer, 27, of Minneapolis, was arrested and handuffed Sunday by officers investigating the theft of a laptop from the North St. Paul Athletic Association building. Court papers saidwhen officers went back into the building after putting Schafer in the back of their squad, she got into the front and drove away.

 

She was later caught in front of a sandwich shop by officers in another squad car. Schafer told police she took the squad to help look for the men who burglarized the building.

 

She was charged in Ramsey County District Court with two counts of burglary and one count of escaping from custody.

 

 

Great job by the cops here. They put the suspect in the car and then all of them leave her there alone.....

I would love to be a fly on the wall while those two dummies were explaining to their Captain how a perp got away....in their Squad Car.

And no one thought to charge her with auto theft or theft of government property?

Of course not, that would only serve to further illustrate the ineptness of the officers involved.
