FARGO — An apartment dweller here who set beer cans in front of his door to alert him to intruders ended up tussling with an alleged burglar early Tuesday, police said.
A neighbor in the apartment called police at 1:24 a.m. to report two elderly, naked men attacking each other.
As it turned out, the men weren’t naked – one was in his underwear and the other fully clothed – but they were fighting between an efficiency apartment unit and the hallway, Sgt. Bill Ahlfeldt said.
An investigation found the suspect had entered the tenant’s apartment while he was sleeping, he said.
“The renter of the apartment had set up a stepstool with empty beer cans on it and set that in front of the door so that if anybody were to open the door it would knock all the beer cans off and that would wake him up, which it did, so I guess it worked,†Ahlfeldt said. ...
Thankfully the reports of nekkidness were exaggerated (http://www.jamestownsun.com/event/article/id/101648/group/News/)

A similar thing works well in college dorms, except you pile them outside someone's door. :hyper:

I have that too. It's called a messy apartment.

He can afford beer but he cannot afford a dead-bolt.

It's not that he can't afford it, but I guess he doesn't want to waste good beer money on a lock. :-)
