Suspected burglar found asleep by police in child-sized bed

A man has been arrested on suspicion of burglary after he was found asleep in a child-sized bed.

Police bodycam footage shows the 24-year-old being woken by officers in the property in Newark, Nottinghamshire, in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

He was found curled up on a small floor bed.

Officers had been called to the house at around 3.15am after reports it was being burgled and found a smashed window.

Aside from the suspect, the property was empty.

Inspector Dale Smith said: “The officers responding to this incident did a great job apprehending a suspect as quickly as they did.”
