Simon, that smart little chipmunk with glasses was stolen – and the whole crime was captured on a security camera. A movie theater in Gurnee, Illinois (suburb of Chicago) was the scene of the rodent crime.

Three stupid teenagers walked into the movie theater lobby and took a 4 foot tall Simon the Chipmunk. The plastic figure was part of the theater’s display promoting “Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel”.

A surveillance video shows the three teens shoving Simon into a car and taking off. Their chipmunk-napping of Simon all fell apart after one of the teens was stupid enough to make a comment online about the crime.

Two 18-year-olds and a 16-year-old were busted for this most disturbing criminal act and police ended-up finding Simon, emotionally shaken but still in good spirits – hidden in a basement of one of the young crooks.
