Burglar Arrested After He Falls Asleep On Couch In The Middle Of Heist and is Found Next Morning By Homeowner: Police house without permission, stealing the jewelry and falling asleep,Lady Lake police said.
A burglar was arrested after he fell asleep in the middle of a heist, and the homeowner discovered him sleeping on the couch, police said.
Domonique Pinkard, 21, was found early Sunday morning by the homeowner, Lady Lake Police said.
The woman told police that her back door had been kicked in and clothing, jewelry and electronic devices were stolen.
After police woke up Pinkard, they found the jewelry in his wallet, according to authorities.
Pinkard told police the jewelry belonged to his girlfriend, but the homeowner identified it as her jewelry, police said. She estimated the jewelry was worth $500.
After speaking to police, Pinkard admitted to being in the house without permission, stealing the jewelry and falling asleep, police said. But Pinkard was not alone, authorities said.
After an investigation, police found Julian Evangelist, 20, who worked with him and was also arrested on burglary charges, authorities said.
After locating Evangelist, police were able to find the stolen items. He confessed to having helped Pinkard, Lady Lake police said.
Both men are being held at Lake County Jail. Pinkard is being held on a $17,500 bond and Evangelist is being held on a $17,000 bond. It wasn't immediately known if they had attorneys.
Wouldn’t it just be trespassing or B&E if the items were not taken out of the house?
Names sound like they’re Haitians.
Never mind, looks like the 2nd dude made it out with the items?
In my house, he wouldn’t have woken up the next morning...
I guess they forget to read the manual on burglary, “best practices.”
You’d kill a sleeping person for $500?
He could just claim to be an undocumented resident. The owners would then probably have to give him a bedroom and make him dinner.
Items were taken out of the house.
After locating Evangelist, police were able to find the stolen items. He confessed to having helped Pinkard, Lady Lake police said.
Just not by the man sleeping on the couch. Some partner; leaves his friend asleep on the couch to be caught.
no, i’d wake him up and give him a running head start
>>You’d kill a sleeping person for $500?
I personally wouldn’t kill for pay, but I’d kill someone for kicking in my back door.
Nah...has to be white guys.../s
“You’d kill a sleeping person for $500?”
I would be afraid that if I woke him up he would bang his foot on my coffee table and sue me for everything I was worth.
Since homeowners have no more rights to defend themselves, it is becomming better to “shovel and shut up” because anyone wanting to take any action against a criminal these days is far worse in the eys of what we laughingly call “the law” these days than the criminal themselves.....
What do you get when you cross narcolepsy with kleptomania?
Note to self: If taking up burglary do not leave partner asleep at the scene of the crime.
Sounds like he got into her bottle of Ambien, and took too many.
Yes
I suspect the guy had been drinking heavily.
Kleptolepsy? Narcomania?
