A bungling intruder who became stuck in the window of a house he was attempting to break into, stunned the homeowners by asking them to call 999 for help (stock picture) It is believed he then asked his baffled victims for help. The Mirror reports that when Humberside Police arrived, the man readily admitted he was trying to break into the house. He has since been arrested and taken into custody. It is the latest in a string of bungled burglaries. Last month, Billy Joe Donnelly, 22, burgled a greenhouse and sampled the owner's home-grown produce - leaving his DNA all over it. He was caught after he took a bite out of a cucumber and left it at the scene, in the village of Preston. It comes weeks after a separate case of 'bungled burglary', in which Billy Joe Donnelly, 22, burgled a greenhouse and sampled the owner's home-grown produce - leaving his DNA all over it. He pleaded guilty at Hull Crown Court (pictured) Donnelly ate a variety of produce and then burgled the adjacent home on August 21. He ransacked the house, stealing treasured possessions including the retirement watch of the owner. His wife woke up to discover her car was missing. Donnelly, of Bransholme, Hull, also stole £77 of meat from a shop. When the police arrested him on August 25, two cannabis plants were found in his airing cupboard. He pleaded guilty at Hull Crown Court to two burglaries, theft and to producing cannabis. And in Guildford, Robbie Haslett's liking for sweets backfired on him when he burgled a house - and left a chocolate wrapper covered in his fingerprints at the scene. The hungry 18-year-old's snack paper was spotted the next morning by one of his eagle-eyed victims who awoke to find their home office had been ransacked. The teenager avoided a custodial sentence after admitting three counts of burglary and one of possession of cannabis. A judge heard that Haslett targetted two homes in Guildford, Surrey, overnight between July 26 and July 27 this year why the owners were asleep.
