Burglar caught after getting stuck in chimney

In the battle of chimney vs. humans, score one for the chimney. Arlington, Texas police have released photos of last month's rescue of a man suspected of attempted burglary who became stuck in a chimney.

It's painful to watch and somehow intriguing. Arlington police said Justin Cain tried to break into a vacant Arlington home through the chimney, but got stuck.



Neighbours hear him yelling for help. Arlington firefighters had to use a crane to pull Cain from the chimney.

Then they promptly handed him over to Arlington police. Cain was arrested and charged with burglary and drug possession.
