A bungling burglar was caught targeting a floristry business while wearing high vis.
Michael Johnston broke into In Bloom Florists, in Easington, County Durham, just before 7am on Thursday morning. The 43-year-old creeped through the store's rear door and took an animal sanctuary charity tin, loose change and a ribbon.
The shop's CCTV alerted the owner to the break-in and they called Durham Constabulary. Officers caught Johnston, with a crowbar in hand, just seven minutes later.
