There are some right toasters out there and this guy definitely qualifies as one of them.

We think that you have to be pretty low to steal from a church; that or you just assume that peaceful churchgoers are going to stand idly by while you make off with the goods!

Well ,this guy soon realized that this particular bunch of worshippers were not the meek and mild type; he got judgment served on him big style!

In the sleepy Cape Cod town of Barnstable, a would-be robber cheekily tried to steal a collection box during a service at the Hyannis Foursquare Portuguese Church, while wearing a mask and carrying a cigarette lighter shaped like a gun.

Not long after entering the church, Massachusetts Police Officers arrived to find 45-year-old Clyde Bridges being held down by parishoners who had tackled him, ripped off his mask and disarmed him.

Clearly Bridges had not learnt anything as earlier in the month he had also tried robbing a pizza delivery boy!

Bridges is now being held on $200,000 bail on armed robbery charges, while his lawyer Terrance O'Connell says Bridges denies robbing the pizza man and does not remember what happened at the church before he was pinned down.

Perhaps his amnesia is a cover up for his embarrassment at being such a low down and quite frankly, abject, robber?

Whatever his excuse, we are pretty sure he won't be trying to steal anything from church anytime soon; next time it might be a lightning bolt that leaves him on the floor!
