SOMEWHERE IN THE WORLD: Drunk Man Stole Rabbit & Guinea Pig After Night Out But Only Realised When He Woke Up And Found Them Hopping Around His Bedroom

Rabbit

This is another reason why you should not drink your head off—else you will end up stealing someone’s problems without even knowing.

This must suck!

According to MailOnline;

A drunk man stole a rabbit and a guinea pig after a night out but only realised after he woke up and found them hopping round his bedroom, a court heard.

Merlin Quinnan, 21, had broken into a woman’s garden and taken the animals from their hutches.

The next day when he realised they were in his bedroom he put pictures of them on Facebook and tried to sell the animals for £10.

Quinnan, of Redruth, Cornwall, admitted the theft as well as stealing a mountain bike and four offences of criminal damage to cars and a motorcycle.

He was sentenced to a 12-month community order with an alcoholic treatment scheme requirement for six months at Truro Magistrates Court.

He was also ordered to pay £210 compensation – including £10 to the owner of the rabbit.

The bizarre theft echoes a similar incident in February.

Anthony Campen, 29, kidnapped a chicken from a nearby primary school before dragging it to a houseparty where he posed with it before releasing it into the wild.

Police used the pictures to force Campen to admit his crime after he posted a number of photos on Facebook.

Pupils at the Bishops’ Church of England and Roman Catholic Primary School in Chelmsford, Essex, had believed their pet chicken, called Olympia, had escaped before they began to suspect foul play.

Campen, from Chelmsford, Essex, admitted causing unnecessary suffering to a protected animal sometime between January 26 and 28 this year 2012 when he appeared at Chelmsford Magistrates Court on February 20.
