Cardboard Box Bandit Busted in Bizarre Florida Burglary

A guy in Port Orange gets busted for using cardboard box to disguise himself while breaking into businesses, admitting to multiple burglaries when caught. The cardboard box bandit.

The cardboard box bandit strikes again. I say that because yet another criminal was stupid enough to use a cardboard box as a disguise. Like that should be criminal as it is. No self-respecting super villain ever wore a cardboard box as a mask. Apparently, nobody told this Florida man,

According to FOX35, there's this Florida man in Port Orange. The guy has got some real interesting hobbies, I tell ya. So, allegedly, he decides to mask up, taking a piece of cardboard from the trash to disguise himself while he's breaking into all kinds of places.

Cardboard Box Bandit Strikes:

Now, back on January 2, a panic alarm was blaring at some business. Three cameras were ripped off the wall, and a JBL speaker went missing. Detectives then find a bag of stolen goods chilling in a dumpster out back. And the internet cables for the whole plaza were sliced and diced just hours before the break-in.

So, they check the footage, and it shows some dude on a bike rolling up, trying to hide his mug with a cardboard box. I mean, you cut wires and all that, but you can't get a cool mask? You use a cardboard box? Lame. Well, Turns out, that same box ends up at the scene of the crime. And get this, the guy's crawling on all fours like going through stuff behind the front desk. Probably because he can't see a damn thing.

Well, a couple more burglaries go down, like a month later. Stop N' Go gets hit, Spectrum cable's cut, same routine. Then, this guy tries to swipe a coin machine from a laundromat. Because, who can resist a big score like loose change, right?

Cardboard Box Bandit Busted:

So, detectives piece it all together, and guess who's the man behind the box? Our Florida man, named Alan Gaudreau. And when they finally nab him, what does the master criminal do? He confesses, straight up sings like a bird. This guy admits to everything!

Of course, Alan gets himself an extended sleepover in the slammer for burglary, mischief, and a bit of petty theft. Listen up everyone, crime doesn't pay, especially when you're wearing a stupid cardboard box as a disguise.

Here's another example of a cardboard box caper...
