The “Duh” for the day: car theft suspect asks officer for ride

“A car theft suspect who took off on foot in Salem was able to flag down a motorist for a ride. The only problem: the helpful driver was an undercover police officer.

When the suspect knocked on the window of the unmarked car and asked for a lift, he got one — straight to jail.”
