Man arrested after falling asleep while breaking into cars
A man from Louisville, Kentucky, faces a string of charges after police
say he broke into several vehicles at a Harrodsburg business, then fell
asleep inside one of those vehicles.
Police were called to CC Auto Parts & Service on Monday morning
after employees called saying a lock box, containing several sets of
keys, had been pried open and several vehicles had been broken into.
When police responded, they found Matthew Stewart, 35, of Louisville asleep in the driver's seat of a vehicle.
Stewart was wearing black gloves and a black face mask.
Police woke Stewart up and arrested him without incident.
Stewart is charged with seven counts of Theft by Unlawful Taking; three
counts of Criminal Mischief in the 3rd Degree, due to three vehicles
being damaged; and one count of Criminal Trespassing in the 2nd Degree.
Police say Stewart appeared to be under the influence.
Chris Caton, who owns CC Auto Parts & Service, says it is the first
trouble he has had there since he has been in business. And while it may
be a bizarre case, he says it is anything but funny. It makes him mad.
"I tell you, there's nothing worse than a thief," Caton said. "If they
spent as much time working as they do trying to figure out a free way in
life, the world would be a lot better place."
