The Naked Brothers Band (Of Thieves)
By Wyatt Earp | October 24, 2008
Note to aspiring criminals: When burglarizing a residence, it is important to not get caught. However, it is more important to not get caught with your dingus hanging out.
LONDON – A naked man was arrested on suspicion of burglary Wednesday after getting stuck in the chimney of the Tesco store he was allegedly trying to steal from, police said.
The man’s claims of “I’m Santa Claus” apparently fell upon deaf ears.
Greater Manchester Police said officers were alerted to the Tesco Express store in the Pemberton area of Wigan at 5:30 a.m. after receiving a report of “concern for a man.”
When police arrived at the scene, they found a man trapped in the chimney breast. The 22-year-old was freed by firefighters and, after it was discovered he was naked, officers took him to hospital. He was later discharged and is now in police custody. (H/T – Reuters)
Ya know, I have long fantasizied about being trapped in a breast, but a chimney breast? Eh, not so much.

Admiral – Maybe he wanted to get some of the houses out of the way before Christmas Eve?
