Burglar Apprehended After Exhaustive Search





Blather Hole, England - A 67-year-old man was arrested early Wednesday morning after he stripped off his clothes and attempted to hide in a rubbish bin from police officers investigating a report of cat burglaries.

The man, who has not been named was charged with two counts of cat burglary, cream egg larceny and resisting a nice cup of tea.

A witness called the Tuna Bay Police Department around 3 a.m. Wednesday, reporting that a man was seen stealing cat food from the back porches of unsuspecting homeowners near the Stogehole Park Neighbourhood.

Officers quickly apprehended the man, but a second, ginger haired man ran behind a maze of cheese at a warehouse located at 3960 S. Bagcock Street.

A helicopter from the O’Lasyei County Police Department, called to assist in the search for the man, used an infrared camera to spot a small patch of heat emanating from a bin behind the park. Helicopter deputies led Blather Hole  police officers on the ground through a wooded area and to the spot where the stinky bin was located.

Officers then reported that they had one man at gunpoint and that "he's completely naked and covered in cat litter and tuna."

"He was lying in the bin with nothing showing but his arse," said Lt. Paige Turner of the Blather Hole Police Department. "He was trying to  umm to umm... where are those donuts again?”

Nearby, officers found a pile of cat toys, cream eggs, and empty tins of tuna as well as 17 cat collars in assorted colours.

Police are urging anyone living in the area that has had a cat stolen recently or is currently missing tins of tuna or cat food to contact them immediately.

Police have released a photo of the man who has been arrested and charged with these heinous crimes.
