Cartoonist draws burglar, cops use it to catch him.

82-year-old caricaturist Bill "Weg" Green draw a sketch of the idiot who burgled him, and the cops used it to nab the criminal on the streets within fifteen minutes.

Picture 1-68Police … were initially reluctant when Mr Green offered to draw the burglar.

"I thought (the drawing) might be a stick figure or something like that." [said Senior Constable Aaron Roche of Ringwood police.]

Seconds later, Mr Green … provided a detailed drawing of the burglar's face.

"It was amazing, the likeness was just fantastic," Senior Constable Roche said.

I give extra points to Green for drawing a goofy grin on the burglar.
