When Andrew Jeffrey Webster went on the lam, police in Waterford, Mich., were confident that there would be little difficulty identifying him.

The bank robbery suspect had the word "Dumb" tattooed on the inside of his right arm.

"We figured that someone would see him walking around with the tattoo and give us a call," Sgt. Todd Hasselbach said.

According to a police document, Webster, 21, allegedly held up a National City Bank on Nov. 15. He approached a teller with a note demanding money and later fled on foot with an undisclosed amount of cash. No weapons were used during the robbery.

Although Webster's tattoo was not visible during the incident — he wore a green jacket, black knit hat, black scarf and gloves — the suspect is well known to Waterford police, who made sure to include the distinct body art in their description of the suspect.

Webster was arrested on Nov. 19 in Detroit. He was arraigned and charged with bank robbery the next day. He is in the Oakland County Jail on $150,000 cash bond.

Can you see me now?

The women that Darnell Evans allegedly accosted all had very vivid and unsettling glimpses of the Pelham, Ala., resident.

He was wearing see-through pants.

The 29-year-old man has been charged with several counts of indecent exposure in Pelham after he allegedly exposed his genitals to four different women. According to Lieutenant Scott Tucker of the Pelham Police Department, Evan's pants were made of a transparent plastic-type material and he wore no underwear.

Evans, a convicted sex offender from California, allegedly would walk up to his victims and attempt to engage them in conversation, directing their gaze towards his lower region.

"He would ask them, 'What do you think?' or if they could see what he had," Tucker said.

Evans is suspected in similar crimes in neighboring Helena, Alabaster and on the University of Alabama's Birmingham campus.

The earliest reported incident in Pelham occurred on October 10, the last on Nov. 15. One of the victim's was able to provide police with a description of the suspect's car and license plate numbers. When police produced a photo lineup, Evans was positively identified.

Tucker said Evans turned himself in after police contacted his probation officer. After Evans posted bond on the misdemeanor charges in Pelham, officers from Helena were waiting to take him back to their jurisdiction to face similar charges there.

The oft-dreaded chore of mowing the lawn was one Illinois parolee's way of trying to run from the law.

But 45-year-old Charles H. Carter's problems kept growing after he allegedly led police officers on a slow-speed pursuit through a cornfield on a stolen lawnmower.

On Nov. 22, Deputy Sheriff James Tapscott of Sagamon County received a call from a confidential source, who claimed that Carter was riding on a stolen green Craftsman lawnmower. Tapscott, who was at police headquarters when he received the call, found a parole warrant from the Illinois Department of Corrections for Carter, who'd been previously convicted of theft.

Police later found a happy and drunk Carter who, according to Tapscott, was still sporting his ankle monitor and was laughing as he plowed through the cornfield on the lawnmower.

Police immediately set up a perimeter around the field. But after seeing the marked police cars, Carter continued to drive around in circles, still laughing, according to Tapscott.

Carter finally dismounted the mower after Tapscott threatened to shock him with a Taser.

Even as Carter was being arrested, Tapscott said, he was "still laughing like a happy drunk."

"It was kind of funny. I never had that happen before," Tapscott said.

Carter is being held in prison. His escape vehicle was confiscated by the Sheriff's department.
