Jeremiah Megallon, a resident of Mabank, Texas, imagined himself pulling off the perfect heist. His target was the Patterson Dodge dealership in Tyler. Megallon entered the dealership by throwing a rock into the inch-thick glass windows and crawled inside.

He wasn’t after the vehicles in the showroom, he didn’t target any safes, and he didn’t take any sensitive information from customers. Instead, he grabbed a handful of candy behind a salesperson’s desk. As he tried to crawl back out of the window, he sustained a deep cut.

Megallon tried to climb out the window for a little while before realizing he couldn’t. So, he resorted to calling 911. During the call, he confirmed to police that he broke the window to get in.

The Snickers Slicker was treated, but then hauled away

When emergency personnel arrived, they took Megallon to a nearby hospital. Dealership staff confirmed to police the doors could have been opened from the inside—he didn’t need to crawl through the window.

After an investigation, employees told officers the only thing stolen was a handful of candy, reported KLTV.

Once he was treated, police took Megallon to jail. Authorities charged him with burglary of a building. The dealership isn’t too worried about the window—managers said it would be replaced quickly to resume business.

Readers say this could inspire a new show

Readers of the Tri-County News First’s coverage of the incident couldn’t help but laugh. Some, however, think calling the police for help was a wise move.

“If you’re going to be dumb, you gotta be tough,” they wrote. “What’s really bad is he could sue the dealership for getting hurt. I know it’s dumb because he was breaking the law, but it’s true.”

Someone else agreed that it not only saved his life, but also saved him from steeper criminal charges.

“I think he did the smart, ethical thing,” their comment read. “‘I tried to break in here, now I’m hurt, come get me.’ I don’t know if I was bleeding out I don’t care if I was going to prison for sure, slap the damn things on me, but I sure don’t want to bleed out.”

Another wrote that this could inspire a new binge-worthy TV show.

“This may make the new TV show, ‘America’s Dumbest Criminals,'” they wrote.
