Idiot criminal: Staff use forklift to pin down a copper thief after previous day’s theft

  • 9 years ago
Employees at Morrison Supply Company in southeast Houston put an end to a robbery in progress in Tuesday when one caught him with a forklift.

On Monday morning a man walked into the business pretending to be an employee of a company that had earlier fired him. A sales representative, Daniel Davis had placed an $2,300 invoice order to the plumbing company for copper. The suspect, assumed Davis’ identity and attempted to collect an unusual copper order.

After he left, he called the company to confirm the order, but when the company said that employee was terminated they called the cops.

On Tuesday, the same man called to place another order, that’s when Morrison workers were ready to catch him.

When the suspect showed up, assistant manager, Darrell Jarvis took his order and called the cops.
The suspect went into the storage garage and that’s when a worker, Michael Anthony trapped him with his forklift until police arrived.

Houston police had been searching for the suspect for the last two months. Charges are pending.
