Man Stabbed Self to Hide Skateboarding Accident

Posted by Alex in Crime & Law on November 4, 2009 at 1:37 pm


Aaron Siebers, 27, had a problem. He was skateboarding one afternoon, fell, and ripped his Blockbuster-issued khakis. Worried about getting "written up," Aaron hatched a criminally (not so) brilliant plan:

Instead of just calling in sick, he stabbed himself in the leg and showed up at work claiming to have just been attacked by three Hispanic males. Siebers, who told cops he was assaulted as he walked toward the Blockbuster in Edgewater, had a deep stab wound in one leg and several other minor cuts on his face and stomach. As investigators began hunting for the assailants, they reviewed surveillance video from outside a Target store where Siebers claimed the attack occurred. The footage, however, showed no such assault. Confronted by cops, Siebers, pictured in the below mug shot, admitted that he had stabbed himself. He told investigators about the skateboarding accident, the resulting ripped pants, and how "he did not want to lose his job so he stabbed himself in the leg," according to an arrest affidavit sworn by Officer Shawna Naumann.

    Does Blockbuster pay that well or is it just that easy?

    Looks like he's tried that one before, judging by the scars on his face.

    And what will this man have leart from this outcome?

    - That next time he wants to cover up his tracks, he'll have to tape off all the surveillance camera's in the whole neighbourhood FAR in advance of his intended misstep.....

    .... :lol:
