Caught on CCTV as he skulks around the back of a property, a criminal is startled by what you'd thing would be the booming bark of a German shepherd
This burglar obviously didn't read the sign saying 'beware of the dog'.
Caught on CCTV as he skulks around the back of a property, the purple-clad criminal is startled by what you'd think would be the booming bark of a German shepherd or rotweiller.
The terrified thief flees the building and launches himself over the garden wall - pursued by a tiny yapping terrier.
A Reddit post titled 'Burglar stopped by the most brutal dog he has ever seen', has now accrued 4,233 points.
One user claims the incident happened in South Africa, and four days later the man was arrested while stealing from another house.
He added the man told police he has cynophobia - a fear of dogs.
