Bungling burglar finds trouble in store - A hapless thief who is believed to have fallen through the roof of a warehouse in Llangollen, Wales, was thought to have been searching for lead at the time. Having dropped almost 30 feet ( 9 metres) into the building, he was then captured on CCTV tidying up any evidence as he remained trapped inside for about half an hour.

He did go down to the woods today ... - Finding a half buried cable in the Francis Marion National Forest, in South Carolina, may not be an everyday occurence, but for one gent on a camping expedition, that's exactly what he found; or to be more accurate, a cable that led back to a covert CCTV camera hidden amongst the trees. Having made inquiries with various local law enforcement agencies, he eventually discovered that the unit had been installed by the US Forest Service, although for reasons that they're not prepared to reveal. - Source - Islandpacket.com 15th March 2010
