HULL (CBS) – A father in Hull is accused of leaving his two young children home alone while he went out to rob a restaurant.
Police say they caught 32-year-old Kenneth Hammonds trying to rob the Red Parrot bar and restaurant around 2 a.m Wednesday.
See, now that's a caring father. Rather than waking his kids up, which would be an interruption in the sleep that their young bodies and minds so desperately need, he let himself out for "a few minutes" to pull his amazing caper. Nope, no dragging his toddlers along on his crime spree for this great dad - he leaves the kids home for the felonies. Now, granted, with broken glass on the floor, there are other dangers in the home, but hey, he's bucking for SuperDad or anything...
Why is it so hot, and how did we get in this handbasket, anyways?
That is all.

I grew up 15 minutes from there. As we said "It's like I died and went to Hull."
Hull is a beautiful community made up of ex-carnies (an amusement park was the largest employer in the past, although now I suspect lobstering and boating-related support activities fill that role), with a vibrant section 8 neighborhood vying for space with some of the most expensive real estate in New England. Honestly, you have to wade tits-deep in scumbags to get to the middle-class neighborhoods on the waterfront, and then it gets more and more beautiful as you proceed down the peninsula.
All in all, it's a lovely place to drink and drive and score Oxycontin, pretty much.
What?? They aren't old enough for him to start teaching them the family business. He'll take 'em next time.
