A burglar downed 24 bottles of beer and a bottle of Jägermeister before he tried to escape from police on a bicycle.

Jy Kennedy, who had also taken cocaine, was chased by police for a mile as he made a number of U-turns to shake them off.

The 24-year-old eventually crashed into a police car and fell off, ending the chase on August 5 in Weoley Castle, Birmingham.

Kennedy, of Pershore Road, Selly Oak, who had previously admitted burglary and theft, and had asked for three other burglaries to be taken into consideration, was jailed for two years.

The chase began after two officers heard a burglar alarm go off in Bournville Lane and spotted Kennedy cycling along clutching a flat screen TV.

Mark Phillips, prosecuting at Birmingham Crown Court, said: ‘It was quite clear the defendant was drunk.

‘He tried to run but did not get very far and was arrested.’

When police searched his home they found a number of items he had taken from the same address earlier laid out on his bed including a jewellery box, a camcorder and a watch.

When quizzed, Kennedy said he had been recently released from prison and was ‘bored.’

Mr Phillips said: ‘He took cocaine at about 6am and bought and drank 24 bottles of Budweiser followed by a bottle of Jagermeister.

‘It was in that state he had gone out to burgle.’

Judge Roderick Henderson said it was clear Kennedy had visited the address more than once and that he had taken some items of sentimental value which had never been recovered.

Delroy Henry, defending, said Kennedy had shown a lack of maturity and still had a lot of growing up to do.

He was soon to be a father and would miss his first born’s birth if sent to jail.

wow. epic.

 

if I am "bored" and i would look for adventure when drunk.. I think trying to get some girls or partying will be what I would look for. burglary is not something you do for fun.

 

though I can see the amount of alco is just ridiculous... so clearly he did not make this decision lightly.. ??
