Burglar Finds Bacon Head, Calls Police

LONDON (Reuters) - A British burglar who stumbled on a work of art that he mistook for a human head in a pickle jar was so spooked that he summoned the police to a house he had robbed.

Conceptual artist Richard Morrison had made the head from bacon wrapped around a wire frame floating in a jar of formaldehyde.

After the burglar phoned, police bashed down Morrison's door to raid his house, near Liverpool in northern England. Morrison returned home to find that his house had been broken into twice, once by the burglar and once by the police.

"In light of the information received, it was of vital importance that we investigated, to ensure that there was nothing suspicious," Detective Chief Inspector Stephen Naylor of Merseyside Police said in a statement on Tuesday.

"The reason for the damage was explained to Mr Morrison and we apologized. Arrangements are in place to replace the door."

Morrison told The Times newspaper he understood why the burglar might have been confused by his artwork.

"It's obviously a very macabre piece of work and I suppose at a glance it looks like a head, but I never expected it to get this reaction," he said. "I gather the police were bracing themselves for a 'Silence of the Lambs' moment when they broke into my flat."

Morrison said the police told him the scare had set the burglar on the straight and narrow.

"He had a crisis of confidence and confessed his crimes to his mother."

:lol:

The ULTIMATE anti-theft alarm!

Once, i heard this guy who robbed a house. He walked into the living room to swipe the TV, but he saw the dog had died, and was lying there, not breathing. So, the man walked up to the dog and kicked it off to the side, being infront of the TV. But, the dog infact was at all a dog. It was the man's house who was getting robbed's new invention. When the robber touched it, alarms sounded and a message appeared on the TV screen saying the police were on their way. They caught him.

Moved to Humor... we need more of this kind of funny news over there... :D

Another great move by XIII! :p

while i was in kentucky there was a robbery at a privite party at a bar, the two robbers snuck in and pulled out guns, the crowd immediately pulled out fourty guns back--it was a policemans retirement party:D

Plus there's the old story of the guy who went into a bank, and pulled a gun. The tellr hit a panic switch, and a blast door went up. The crook then attempted to flee. He began to push on the doors, but they wouldnt open, and he asumed the teller had locked the door. but he just tried to break the doors open until the police arrived. All he would've had to to do was pull on the door to escape :p
