Liquor Store Burglar Can't Exit; Caught Inside Business

If you are going to rob an establishment, at least know the way out.

Atlanta police reported that a burglar broke into a southeast liquor store early Tuesday morning, but then couldn't exit the store.

Police and the owner of Azar's Package Store, Donald Azar, discovered the thief trapped in a bathroom inside the store near Turner Field at approximately 3:30 a.m.

The burglar reportedly entered the store through a hole in the roof, but then could not climb back up to escape. Meantime, bars on the windows and doors prevented an exit the old-fashioned way.

The suspect was apparently not a stranger to the owner, having been hired as part of a crew to clean up the store only last weekend.
