And finally… hot clothes don't look so cool

A man from Connecticut has been arrested for home burglary after the victim of his crime spotted him wearing stolen swag in a mugshot.

Derek Benson (pictured), 30, was seen wearing a Coco Libre sweatshirt in a 2014 mugshot.

But a Coco Libre employee whose house was burgled that year saw the allegedly stolen sweatshirt in the photo when it was shared online, and immediately contacted the police.

Benson was subsequently investigated for that burglary and arrested a week ago.

He is being held on a $125,000 bond.
