Bleeding Nose Leads To Boxer's Arrest

A boxer from Toledo was arrested following some unorthodox evidence gathering. Martin Tucker (the boxer) had a fight in his home city— occurring in April—in which he got a bloody nose. To clean him up, his corner used a Q-tip. Tucker was suspected by investigators as having been involved in a bank robbery in July of 2009; the bank robbery involved two men stealing $5,379. A special agent named Robert Schmitz—a closeted Jedi master—snatched up the previously mentioned Q-tip after the fight and had the DNA analyzed to see if it was a match to the robbery in 2009; it turned out to be a match. Long story short, he was charged with robbing the bank and was charged for having a firearm involved as well. 


Was all that worth $5,379? They say that boxing can cause brain damage, well it certainly didn't help this guy. If you are ever tempted to rob a bank, stop for a few moments and contemplate just how stupid such an idea is. 


Random Note: Why does it seem most boxers are Christians? Well, if Tucker is a Christian he should be concerned about ticking off God; I'm sure He doesn't like people violating one of His 10 Commandments ("Thou shall not steal"..I think that's how it goes).
