The Perfect Disguise

Kinda makes the duct tape bandit look like a genius, huh? There were two of them with the same brilliant disguise arrested for attempted robbery. Someone, apparently, saw them trying to break into an apartment and called the police. http://www.newsvine.com/_news/2009/10/28/3435814-iowa-cops-nab-permanent-marker-burglary-suspects

update: I found a link with pictures of both the 'permanent marker bandits'.
