The Ft. Myers News Press has a story about an UPS driver who police allege went on a crime spree that would make Grand Theft Auto IV’s Niko Bellic envious.

Craig Podleski, an UPS driver since January 2000, is accused of stealing $250,000 worth of packages including a Wii, an Xbox 360 and three PlayStation 3s. Non-gaming items Podleski is believed to have taken include a $700 compound bow, a Cobra GPS with Bluetooth and - we are not making this up - a police badge from Cape Coral, the town where he lives.

Police arrested Podleski earlier this month (August 2009) after finding so much stolen stuff in his home it filled an entire rental truck.

On August 26, 2009, his wife Cheryl was arrested for dealing in stolen property. She turned herself in to authorities and was released after paying a $2,500 bond. Because when your hubby moves a rental truck worth of high-end electronics and other goodies into your house, it is pretty hard to feign ignorance.

Craig Podleski is still in jail in for his role in what the Cape Coral PD call one of the largest theft cases they’ve ever investigated.
