Colorado burglary suspect caught on toilet during arrest
The Lakewood Police Department in Colorado released video of a Feb. 29 arrest in which a second-degree burglary suspect was arrested while sitting on the toilet.
A Colorado suspect was caught in a rather compromising position – on the toilet – when he was arrested by officers last week.
The suspect, who was charged with second-degree burglary, was caught with his pants down when he was apprehended by Lakewood Police early on Thursday. The authorities were responding to a burglary alarm sounding off.
"When a verified burglary alarm went off, [a]gents quickly got to the scene and utilized a drone to look for a suspect," the Lakewood Police Department explained in a Facebook post.
