A foolish criminal shouted out his own name during an armed street robbery - making investigating officers' lives easier. Kyle Wood, 34, who also has a distinctive teardrop tattoo on his cheek, had carried out two separate street robberies on young men who, moments before, had got off a bus and were both walking towards their respective homes in Long Eaton, Derbyshire.
Armed with a knife, he demanded their belongings and left one of them fearing for his life, reports DerbyshireLive. Then, when a passer-by shouted over and tried to intervene during the second crime, the defendant proudly told the man: "Don't get involved, do you know who I am? I'm Kyle Wood, keep the f*** out."
Wood told Derby Crown Court: "I don't care I'm a big bad wolf." He then refused to stay on a prison link to find out his fate. During the sentencing hearing, Wood said "get me out of here" before banging on the door to be let out of the video-link room at HMP Nottingham. The court was told that Wood is known to self-medicate with crack cocaine.
