“Die gemaskerde sopbene” strikes…..
DailyMail: “Would-be burglars Matthew McNelly and Joey Miller’s masterplan contained one tiny flaw – their ‘disguises’ comprised of masks drawn on their faces using pemanent marker pen. The pair had been reported after a witness spotted two men ‘with painted faces’ trying to break into a flat in Carroll, Iowa.
The pair are due in court next month. Hopefully the disguises will have washed off by then.”
I guess the local equivalent would be to use Tip-Ex?
