Forget about cat burglars - the newest threat to your home looks more like the Hamburglar ... with a tail.

Bill Hyde and his wife learned this firsthand while watching a movie in their Dallas home.

They were just sitting there, busting a chill, when something started rattling and shaking in the living room near the front door, The Dallas Morning News reports.

(Dun dun DUUUUUUN!)

Note to self: Crime may not pay, but it can pair well with a nice Chianti and a plate of pasta.

Detectives in a Dallas suburb are hoping to ketchup with a band of red-handed vandals who've been bombing buildings with spaghetti sauce.

Mmmmm ... criminal mischief.

According to police, there have been at least eight incidents in which the jars of sauce have been tossed at cars and homes in the Frisco area, the Dallas Morning News reports.

Whoops.

Sheesh. Always the last to know, right?

It sounds strange, but it happened to a guy in Leander, Texas. The best part? He wasn't just any guy - he was the mayor, keyetv.com reports.

The Leander Ledger mistakenly printed a caption saying Mayor John Cowman had bit the dust under a photograph of him and the woman who actually expired.

Uhhh ... oops!
