Bungling burglar takes a tumble

A burglar who raided a nursery sprawled on the floor in agony after he jumped through a window.

The raider also appears to have wet his pants during the raid at the Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery in Bromley Road, Lewisham on April 14.

CCTV from within the school captured the suspect entering the rear of the premises and then climbing down to the rear door.

As the suspect climbed down, he was seen to fall on his right ankle and fall to the floor before walking into the office and stealing the tablets.

The suspect is described as a black man with short hair and beard wearing a zipped hooded top, tracksuit bottoms and light coloured trainers.

Police are keen to hear from anyone who may recognise the man shown on CCTV or who witnessed the incident.

Three tablet computers were stolen in the incident.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111
