Today in uncommon news, our student assistants found these two newspaper articles about some rather odd and ambitious crimes. How a street sweeper from Los Angeles could have been successfully transported to Aurora, Colorado, is still unclear to us but it makes for an interesting read nonetheless.
The top article is from The San Mateo Times, Fri 27 Jun 1969
The bottom article is from The San Francisco Chronicle, Wed 1 Mar 1972
