Person Who Left This Play-Doh Fingerprint To Be Arraigned

LEICESTER, MA— Police say the person who attempted to rob a business but left behind some Play-Doh and a print of one of their fingers in it is in jail now.

"It's a match!!" reported Leicester police on social media this week.

Several weeks after a person allegedly tried to rob a business but first tried to deftly circumvent the security camera at a store in Leicester in order to hide possible thieving by pushing some Play Doh onto the Security camera, was identified with help from the Connecticut Crime Lab.

It is not clear whether the person stole the Play-Doh that was used, or it was brought from home as part of the plan. Either way, the suspect's print, which was left like a glowing piece of evidence that would excite any Forensic Files fan, led to their arrest.

The person who allegedly placed it there is currently at the Worcester County House of Correction, wanted in two other states for crimes, according to police.

The Leicester Police Department has filed charges in connection its investigation and the Play Doh placer will be arraigned in court in the near future.
