Nap thwarts burglar’s escape

? A 35-year-old man is in jail after police say he fell asleep while burglarizing a home over the weekend.

KSNW-TV reported that a couple came home Saturday afternoon to find the 35-year-old man in a bedroom pulling on his clothing. He hid in a closet while the couple called police.

Wichita police Lt. Steve Kennedy says the man broke into the home and began gathering valuable items, but then stopped to take a shower and a nap. He apparently woke up just shortly before the home’s residents returned.
