Burglar’s shower interupted by Homeowner, calls 911

This is the kind of burglars we need more of – the kind that call the police themselves;

The suspect, Timothy James Chapek, was in the bathroom taking a shower when the homeowner returned to the house Monday night, Portland police said in a statement.

Accompanied by two German shepherds, the homeowner asked Chapek what he was doing in the house.

Chapek locked himself in the bathroom and made an emergency call, police said. He said he had broken into the house, the owner had come home, and that he was concerned the owner might have a gun.

Yeah, I’m a lazy homeowner, just go ahead and phone it in yourself. It seems to me that if Chapek was worried about the owner’s possession of a weapon, it would have been long before he took a shower in someone else’s house.
