Florida Man Chews Off Fingerprints To Escape Identification

Darpan News Desk IANS, 03 Aug, 2015 12:32 PM
    A theft accused in Florida tried to chew off his own fingerprints so that he cannot be identified, media reported.
     
    When traffic policemen in Florida's Lee county stopped 20-year-old Kenzo Roberts, who was driving a Mercedes that had been reported stolen, he began to remove his own fingerprints by chewing them off and rubbing them against the car.
     
    "The driver was using a fake ID, had a handgun and three fraudulent credit cards," Lee county sheriff was quoted as saying on Sunday by abc13.com.
     
    However, a fingerprint scanner identified Roberts and showed he had two felony warrants for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
