A thief in Maryland faced instant karma after a gate tore through his pants while he was allegedly trying to flee the scene.
It was alleged that the thief was caught stealing by a neighbor, who began filming as he attempted to leave the scene. The thief then appeared to try to jump over a spiked gate but got stuck when the spikes caught onto his pants.
The video was seen by viewers as an embarrassing moment for the thief as he continued trying to free himself from the gate while people walked down the street. The more he struggled, the more the spikes appeared to catch onto and tear through the material of his pants.
The thief then tried using his hands to free himself, but that also appeared to be unsuccessful. He began struggling more forcefully and hitting the gate in the process. At one point, he ended up upside down as the spikes continued tearing through his pants, leaving part of his skin exposed.
He eventually managed to free himself, but a significant portion of his pants had been torn and remained caught on the gate’s spikes. The thief also appeared to lose some of his belongings in the process, as a walkie-talkie he was carrying fell beneath the gate. He briefly looked at his belongings before leaving the area with part of his skin still exposed. It is unclear whether he was later arrested.
