As you’re all well aware, the world is full of bad people who do bad things on a regular basis. Lucky for us (and for law enforcement,) these bad people also do stupid things on a regular basis, making them easy to find. Here are 7 of these dumb Kansas criminals who will have you shaking your head.

1.) During an attempted robbery at a Topeka Kwik Shop, the suspect asked the clerk to empty the register, tied him up after discovering there wasn't much cash to take, and then worked the counter himself for 3 hours until police arrived to arrest him.

2.) A Topeka couple was sued by the man who held them hostage in their own home, claiming they failed to keep a verbal contract they'd made after he promised them money in exchange for a place to hide.

4.) A 29-year-old Wichita man punched a convenience store worker in an attempt to steal his bag. Upon leaving the store, the suspect realized that instead of walking off with cold hard cash, he had stolen cold hard keys. After returning to the scene of the crime, he was arrested by police investigating the scene.

5.) A 24-year-old Topeka man was arrested after robbing a Kwik Shop at knife point and driving off in his rented white Hummer stretch limousine.

6.) A Hutchinson woman was arrested and charged with arson after attempting to kill a spider by setting her house on fire.

7.) A Derby man with two arrest warrants was finally found and booked after accidentally shooting himself in the leg with an illegal firearm.
