Thief Falls Asleep During Robbery

An exhausted Australian man fell asleep while apparently trying to pick the lock of a shopping center after a "long night", police have said.

The 35-year-old man was found snoozing outside a Perth shopping complex early on Sunday morning 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 said.

Keys found on the man opened a car parked nearby which was filled with a large quantity of prescription drugs linked to the burglary of a pharmacy earlier in the morning.

"He obviously had a long night, whatever he was doing, and that got the better of him," Mr Dinnison said.

"He was then found at eight o'clock, so he's probably worked through the night and was a bit tired, which probably isn't a good attribute for someone in that line of business."

Police said the man has been charged with driving without a licence, burglary and attempted burglary.

His friends probably pulled a prank on him

"Hey, Jim`s drunk as hell, lets make it look as if he`s trying to rob the place and fell asleep"

Little did they know the prank would backfire, and Jim was going to receive unsolicited anal sex in jail.

`a car parked nearby which was filled with a large quantity of prescription drugs linked to the burglary of a pharmacy earlier in the morning.`

You just know that means he took some of the meds from the other robbery and decided to get more. Don`t know why he would think that trying to pick a lock on Oxycontin or something would be a good idea.

"Large amounts of extra strength sleeping pills were recovered." Next time read the label genius.
