Reminds me of a thing that happened here a few years ago. Guy breaks into a convenient store after hours. Steals a bunch of stuff, took this big box thing from a shelf behind the counter that kinda looked like a safe. Couldn't get the "safe" opened. Cops found it dumped at the park. Turns out it was actually the camera system. Nice close up pictures of the perpetrator at his house trying to open the "safe". Camera system had internal battery backup....... He admitted thinking it was a safe. The excuse, "It wasn't me" just couldn't be defended. Love it when technology actually works.
