Two Arrested After Showing Off Gun Hiding Techniques

Two bumbling criminals were arrested after plainclothes police officers observed them showing each other how to hide a handgun in their pants.

The incident occurred on Thursday afternoon on Bedford Avenue near Empire Boulevard. A team of plainclothes anti-crime officers from the 71st precinct observed two black men showing one another how to tuck a handgun in their waists while preventing their pants from falling down.

The officers quickly apprehended both men and recovered a loaded handgun.

Police sources said that both men have lengthy criminal records.

The anti-crime team were in the area in response to a recent uptick in violence.

    If you’re going to show each other how to hide something, DON’T DO IT IN PUBLIC!!!!!

    Great idea, send them to college with the loaded gun, are you out of your mind?!?

    “Showing one another ” if they each know how then no need to show each other.

  • Collage?

    I don’t think teaching them how to make a picture by sticking things on paper will help them. Maybe college would do them some good

    • well...

    first of all, when Guliani was our mayor, he was so effective. He was tough and firm and the word on the street was that crime does not pay, because he was so thorough and determined to serve the needs of the city. So like this story. If enough of this happens, then those who are tempted to do criminal activities will not go to do it so fast. They should keep it up. We should thank them.
