Bicycle locks no match for a large rock, but alleged thieves no match for pursuing cops

Boston Police report arresting a pair of 50-somethings who allegedly used "a bag with a big rock inside it" to smash locks and make off with a pair of bicyles at Mass. Ave. and Boylston Street around 2:15 this morning.

Unfortunately for the alleged yeggs, Mass. Ave. and Boylston Street is one of the few intersections in the City that Always Sleeps that has a fair amount of foot traffic even at 2:15 a.m. and so Carl Effee, 54, and Carl Lemon, 52, were both apprehended in short order and charged with larceny of a bicycle, police say.

Innocent, etc.

Carl Lemon huh...

Does Judge Dougan know about this? I bet Mr. Lemon cannot WAIT to go in front of him again.

Carl Lemon is the fellow in

Carl Lemon is the fellow in the Globe story this weekend about Judge Dougan of Boston Municipal Court. Didn't put him in jail, even with a written confession and a 25 year criminal record, but did throw the Boston Police detective on the case in jail for contempt.
