Dead End Jewelry Heist
Four guys were heading for an important heist. They were dressed as dreadful clowns and were headed for the Archeological Museum. Their mission was to steal the largest diamond necklace ever found at an archeological dig. Previously, they had visited the museum for a week to be sure that they knew how to enter, steal the necklace, and exit without any interruptions. There was only one night watchman who usually slept through his watch since there was never any trouble. They had found a way to enter through the basement where they disconnected the electricity and alarm system. Then they snuck up behind the slumbering night watchman and gave him a heavy knock on the head. Working like a well-oiled machine the four guys smashed the glass case holding the diamond necklace. Making sure they left no clues or fingerprints they bagged their prize. They were looking forward to celebrating their perfect heist with some cold brews. They carefully stepped over the unconscious night watchman who lay on the floor. Once they left the museum they headed down the dark alley beside the museum. There was no sound, wearing big grins suddenly they were facing two policemen with guns drawn.
