The lengths that one will go to acquire drugs astounds me at times; a man in Wisconsin needed his fix so bad that he broke into an animal hospital through the duct work, naked of course, and became stuck inside for 11 hours before being rescued/arrested.
According to Fox6Now, Police have labeled this case a “stupid criminal story” — and it begins with the man on the roof, sawing into the ventilation system.
“Stripped down, bare naked and squeeze into the ventilation shaft with a hammer and a flashlight, presumably one in each hand,” said Capt. Aaron Raap.
The suspect told police he was looking for drugs, presumably painkillers and sedatives used to treat sick animals. What he found was a hole.
“This 19-year-old suspect then crawled one direction, assuming that he could get down and into the building, was met with resistance in the form of the shaft narrowing. Turned around, somehow missed his entry hole, and slid all the way down the shaft to the ground level located behind the building,” said Capt. Raap.
The naked duct crawler remained inside the ventilation system for 11 hours. He was only freed after hospital staff began hearing shouting coming from the vents.
The suspect, identified by police as Shane Rae, was not hurt in this incident. He is being charged with attempted burglary.
