FLORIDA — Four young criminals were so pleased with themselves after a recent score that they used a camcorder they stole to make a nearly three-minute long video showing themselves counting stolen cash, wearing stolen jewelry and sitting in a stolen car.

They ended up leaving the stolen items, including the camcorder, in the stolen vehicle after getting into an accident in Ft. Lauderdale. Ft. Lauderdale police officers recovered the items and tracked them to residential burglaries in Boca Raton and Oakland Park. When Broward Sheriff’s Office detectives in Oakland Park saw the video, they recognized each bragging burglar.
