Cop Catches Punk Kid Breaking into His Car

Best story of the day, hands down:

CENTERVILLE — A teenager suspected of car burglary was so surprised when he opened a car door to find a police officer sitting inside that he messed his pants, police said.

It happened about 1 a.m. Saturday as Salt Lake County sheriff’s deputy Chad Taylor was returning to his Centerville home from working a shift.

“I was in my personal vehicle, but I was in uniform,” Taylor told the Deseret News Monday. “I’d pulled in my driveway and was on the phone with another deputy when I looked in the rear-view mirror and saw this guy trying to get into my wife’s car.”

Taylor watched the teen then move up toward his car.

“Right as his hand goes to check my handle, I kick the door open,” Taylor said. “I said, ‘You’d better stop right there! Police!’ I’m not kidding, it was quiet as can be, and I heard …”

So far, a pretty cool story — a cop was actually sitting in his car while he watched some punk kid try to break into it. But wait…this is where it gets good.

The cop chased the punk down until they found him hiding at a friends house. And when they find him…they find out just how startled he was by that cop:

The boy dashed into a friend’s house, where a party was going on, police said. Officers were let into the house where they found him — and discovered that he had soiled himself, Child said.

“You could smell him,” Taylor said. “He told us, ‘Yeah, I crapped my pants.’?”

That’s awesome. I hope they made the punk kid sit in his own shit all the way to jail and until his parents came and picked him up.
