Sheriff: Drunk Son Passes Out In Robbery
Police Say Son Found Passed Out Under Homeowner's Bed

CARTERSVILLE, Ala. -- Officials said a drunk father and son burglarized a home and were caught after the son was found passed out under the invalid homeowner's bed. DeKalb County Sheriff Jimmy Harris said Wednesday that a 37-year-old man and his 19-year-old son were arrested Sunday.

Harris said they broke into the home around 2 a.m. Sunday and took car keys, medication, about $200 in cash and $100 worth of jewelry. They were about to leave when one of the residents woke up, and they hid.

The father sneaked out, but Harris said the son apparently passed out in his hiding place under the homeowner's bed.

The homeowner's wife found him around dawn and called a neighbor and police.

The neighbor turned out to be the son's grandfather. He turned the young man over to police.
