Thief busted after falling asleep on the job
Police arrest man in Australia who fell asleep trying to break into a shopping centre
By METRO NEWS REPORTER -
An exhausted thief fell asleep in the process of seemingly trying to pick the lock of a shopping centre.
Cops in Australia said the man was found snoozing early in the morning outside the complex in Perth with a lock-breaking wire still in his hand.
Police spokesman Samuel Dinnison said: "It appears he fell asleep on the ground with the wire still in his hands and also in the door."
"He obviously had a long night whatever he was doing, and that got the better of him.
"He was then found at eight o'clock, so he'd probably worked through the night and was a bit tired, which isn't a good attribute for someone in that line of work."
Car keys found on the man opened a nearby vehicle which was filled with scores of prescription drugs linked to the burglary of a pharmacy earlier that day.
The man has been charged with driving without a licence, burglary and attempted burglary, say police.
