A cold night for naked burgling

A few nights ago, at 11 pm, the doorbell rang. I went to see who it was but didn't see anyone. About ten minutes later, I heard a lot of noise around the garbage cans in the side yard. I went to the laundry room and saw a hairy arm sticking through the pet door (above). I yelled, "What are you doing?! Get the f___ out of here or I'm calling the police!" Jennifer did call the police. Within ten minutes, a helicopter and a squad car arrived, four officers came in and we felt a lot better. Later, we learned that they caught the would-be burglar just a few doors down. He was completely naked, having left all his clothes in our backyard.
