A Lakewood Republican stealing campaign signs late one night got nabbed when he ran across a low- hanging driveway chain, fell face first onto a pilfered sign and the concrete and knocked himself unconscious.

Randal Wagner, 50, was loaded into an ambulance, treated at Lutheran Medical Center for abrasions and facial cuts and issued a summons.

Wagner, who unsuccessfully tried to steal a “Dave Thomas” congressional sign that evening, had signs for other Democratic candidates in his Toyota pickup, Wheat Ridge police reported.

“I did a very stupid thing,” Wagner said Monday, admitting theft of the signs.
