Because of course he needed them to get into his apartment with his stolen loot.
If you’re going to steal something, make sure you don’t get caught. And better yet, don’t leave your keys at the scene of the crime.
It sounds crazy but that’s what this guy did. And he never should have came back to get his keys.
However, he really did come back to claim the keys that he left. This is how the story went.
It was 3:50 a.m. on Sunday morning when a woman called police to tell them that her husband had just caught a man breaking into their garage. Once the cops made it to the scene, they arrested the suspect.
During the arrest, on the way to being taken into custody, the suspect kicked one of the officers. Brandon Police Service said the officer was not injured.
Police investigated and determined that the suspect had broken into the garage earlier in the night. He stole two bicycles, a laptop computer, and a bar fridge.
According to the police, the suspect hid the items he stole nearby, while he returned other items to his apartment. The problem was, he didn’t have his keys, so he was at his apartment but he couldn’t get into it.
The suspect decided he would smash the glass door of his apartment building so that he could get in, but he still couldn’t get into his place without the keys. The robber returned to the garage he stole the items from to look for his keys and that’s when the homeowner apprehended him.
The police reported that the suspect was intoxicated and in breach of two conditions of an undertaking. The 20-year-old Brandon man was arrested for break, enter and theft, two counts of failure to comply with an undertaking, two counts of mischief to property under $5000, and assaulting a police officer.
The suspect spent time in the Brandon Police Station and was later released when he sobered up. He has an upcoming September court date.
Brandon is 425 miles from Niceville
