After realising that they were missing the TV, store attendants scoured CCTV to discover that two accomplices had lent a hand to the robber, fixing the TV to his body with clamps.
A spokesperson for the police said "Staff only knew about the theft after they saw one of the display TVs had been taken off its stand.
"It's hard to believe that the sight of an armless man walking along with a giant TV clamped to his body did not get anyone's attention."

A new precedent has been set for the art of TV stealing.
-

-

At least he's not dangerous - as he's arm-less.

This all just too much. I'm grateful for the laugh though.

"store attendants scoured CCTV to discover that two accomplices had lent a hand to the robber, fixing the TV to his body with clamps."
How on Earth did they manage to do all of this and not one person noticed? Or maybe they played on the fact that most people were too polite to stare. Genius!
-
Hilarious. Almost as funny as the man who used craiglist to rob a money truck and then go away in a innertube
-
he managed to steal a large tv without any arms, i think he deserves to keep it as that's no easy task.
-
People probably thought it was a store Sells technique - thought he was a motion-picture ad promotion and were amused at the sight.
Live Learn Love Grow Evolve, Create-Greatness and give it away...
-
That's genius. For shear brazen balls of steel, let him have the tv...

incredible! though kinda weird that the two accomplices should go to all the trouble of clamping the TV to the guy, especially as he'd be more noticable, rather than just carry the thing themselves.. though I guess they reckoned the store owners would be less likely to challenge a disabled guy?
-
they should let him keep it

I read that whole article once through before I realised that armless actually ment a lack of arms, not a lack of guns... obviously I don't posses the required skill needed to steal a TV like that.

Let him keep the TV just out of sheer effort. haha!
-
the best fall guy ever, a guy with the evidence clamped to him who cant take it off. what did he expect volunteering for it? or even a better question, did he lose his arms in a previous robbery? and if so, was that considered an armed-robbery?
