WASHINGTON – A would-be car thief became the victim of his own crime in Ireland last week.
The man tried to break the window of a car parked next to a pub in the Irish town of Drogheda. But instead of cracking the glass, the brick bounced off the window hitting the thief in the face.
Unfortunately for the thief, the car belonged to the owner of the pub, who gave surveillance camera footage of the botched crime to local police. The owner, Gerry Brady, also shared the video on social media.
Brady tells the Irish news site Independent that he found the man knocked out on the pavement and that his face was bleeding.
