Surveillance cameras in a Northern California store captured a
man's failed attempt to smash a glass entrance door with a rock before he
tripped - wearing comfortable-looking pajamas and a camoflauge coat - over the
curb of a parking space during his getaway.
The bungled burglary attempt occurred March 5 at Kent's Market
in Redding. Police issued a request Wednesday for help identifying the subject,
whose face could be seen through the front entrance before he walked out of the
camera's view to pull down his mask.
The police describe the man as being approx. 5 "11 & 350 pounds.
He returned with a rock, which he hurled at the door in a failed break-in attempt
that triggered a burglary alarm, police said in a statement. The video shows him
wearing dark blue pajama bottoms, sandals with socks and a military-style coat.
He also has a blue stocking over his head, which he pulls down halfway through
the video. He has light brown or blond hair, with a thick beard.
The man sprinted a few steps before tripping over the blue
parking space curb.
