DUMB CRIMINAL OF THE WEEK: LOCKED IN

by Hazed

You would expect a burglar to be pretty good with locks, able to defeat the most fiendish security devices in order to gain access to properties in the pursuit of his chosen trade.

But they are not always that skilled, as a 43-year-old German burglar demonstrated when he attempted to rob a house in Bonn last week.

First he tried to break in through the front door, but he failed. Then he jumped over a fence into the back garden and managed to gain access through a set of unlocked patio doors. He set about collecting up his swag – a notebook, a mobile phone and some food to keep him going on his trip home.

But before he could leave the house, the patio door slammed shut, and thanks to a faulty lock, he found himself trapped inside.

He had to resort to calling the police to rescue him. Naturally, he was arrested, so his release was immediately followed by incarceration.
