DUMB THIEF

A robber who shoved some kind of explosive device into an ATM in Australia was blown out of his sandals by the blast, and he didn't get any cash.

The whole thing was caught on a surveillance camera.

You see the man with his face covered with a cloth insert the device in the machine and then light it.

He's then blown backwards across the sidewalk, but still manages to get up and run away.

The machine was destroyed.

HIGH SPEED CHASE

Police in San Francisco chased two men who stole a newspaper delivery truck.

At one point, the driver veered through traffic nearly clipping a vehicle. Moments later, he swerved into oncoming traffic lanes.

When it appeared the driver was cornered by police, the driver put the truck in reverse - clipping a car as he sped off.

At one point the passenger got out, but was quickly caught.

The pursuit finally ended when the driver steered into a cul-de-sac.

ENGINE FIRE

A US Airways flight had just left Philadelphia Monday when flames started shooting from an engine - forcing the pilot to make an emergency landing.

No one was hurt.
