A naked man found wedged in the chimney of a supermarket in Wigan has been arrested on suspicion of burglary.

Police officers discovered him trapped in a chimney breast of a Tesco Express store on Ormskirk Road, Pemberton.

Firefighters were called to rescue the man who had become trapped in the chimney as he tried to get out.

Police said that because the man was naked he was taken to hospital as a precaution but was treated and discharged before being arrested.

A GMP spokeswoman said: "It is believed some his clothes came off as a result of him struggling to get out of the chimney."

A 22-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of burglary and remains in police custody.
BBC.

:D
 
Now I have found myself in tight spots stuggling to move however my clothes have never fallen off :confused:

Some people :rolleyes:

A real ashhole of a criminal.
 
Ok maybe it's just me, but i have NEVER seen a chimney big enough for a baby to fit thru, much less a grown person.

How do people get these ideas in their head's?
 
Fantastic public service.

Atleast here in the states, when your brought into the hospital for injuries related to a crime/what not, yes, you have to be discharged from the hospital care, but there's a nice PoPo waiting for you or at least with you every step of the discharge process to take you downtown to lock up.

They don't just discharge you and you hope the cops don't find you, they're waiting for your discharge.

Depends which way he was facing.
 
Sort of reminds me of the Drew Carey episode, where Kate told Drew that 3 things in the Apartment had been inside a Hobo's Ass.
 
He should have lubed up before trying to pass a canal that small.
:)

I can't bare these types of stories anymore. :p
Snort.

When asked how he felt he replied "****ing grate"...
MLOL.

ROTFMLOL! :)

Now I am completely woke up.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste. :p
 
:D


This comment caused me to think of the situation where the person is facing up, and the rocket comes from below, and, well, er. gets stuck up a certain hole in the body. :p

Myself being a certified bottle rocket expert for many years (age 12-21) i can assure you that they are very unpredictable as to their direction of travel, if any.

I suggest lightning a whole pack at once out of a 6" PVC pipe ;)

Ah, grasshopper, granted a bottle rocket is generally unpredictable in it's flight path. However, there are ways to aim a bottle rocket successfully, most of the time.

My best friend and I used to do battle with them, direct and indirect fire.

That is why I can imagine the rocket going up a certain hole. :D

Although, your idea/method does sound like an interesting and fun approach. :p
 
It's getting cold in that part of the world. I hope the man didn't come down with the flue.
