Naked Burglar Gets Trapped in Milwaukee Air Vent
2013-09-20
[An Nahar] Police in the U.S. city of Milwaukee said a naked burglar tried to break into a veterinary clinic to steal drugs but got stuck in the air vents for almost 12 hours.

Police Lt. Mark Stanmeyer said employees of the Small Animal Hospital in Milwaukee came into work Monday morning and heard the muffled screams of someone calling for help. They discovered the 19-year-old stuck in a narrow shaft.

The teen had crawled into the vent Sunday about 9 p.m., meaning he spent about half a day in the vent.

Stanmeyer said the teen suffered multiple cuts and scrapes from screws.

Police Capt. Aaron Raap said the man had stripped naked on the roof before breaking into the vent, perhaps to prevent his clothes from snagging on screws.
Instead he snagged various protruding tender bits, and will now enjoy a series of activities that started with a tetanus shot and continued with antibiotics and said tender bits being cleaned by the police station's medical person wielding a handful of alcohol wipes. Personally, I think the lad has already paid for his crime in spades, and is likely to suffer PTSD for quite some time to come.
The man faces an attempted-burglary charge.
