Robbery is a horrible crime, as is the breaking and entering that usually accompanies it. It leaves the victims with a sense of violation, it leaves the criminals, however, richer, if not somewhat loaded down.

In Minnesota, police say they caught a man who stole eight piggy banks from a home, getting a total of $2,700 in change. Most change jars aren’t exactly light, and they certainly don’t have a grand or two in them, so eight piggy banks with $2,700 in them must have weighed a ton. The man took the piggy banks to a local bank and got his money changed over. Police say he was caught when a neighbor noticed the him leaving the house after the robbery.

Sadly, the piggy banks were broken beyong repair.
