The one thing you should never do when robbing a house – lie down and have a nap.

The residents of a home in New Jersey arrived home last week to find a 47 year old man asleep on their couch.  As if that’s not creepy enough, upon taking a closer look, they realised he had their mobile phone in his possession. 

The residents called the police who arrived at the scene to the still sleeping Mr Dennis Bannon.  After a few minutes of actually waking the man up, police charged him with burglary, theft, criminal trespasss and possession of stolen property.

He is now being held on $20 000 bail at Monmouth County Jail.

What have you learned?  Nap first, rob later…errr…or just don’t rob at all!
