A terrified burglar has handed himself to police in New Zealand after breaking into a house and stumbling across a body hanging in the dark.

His screams alerted neighbours in the North Island town of Hamilton, who thought it was a domestic dispute.

Police said the hanged man had died hours before the burglary, but might otherwise not have been found for days.

They said they hoped the encounter would prove a life-changing moment for the burglar.

In a bazaar kind of way it's a shame the burglar hadn't decided to rob the place a few hours earlier :headshake:

"...Hopefully there will be a positive out of it and that he will decide it's not the thing to do. I would be taking that as pretty bad karma," Hamilton Police senior sergeant Freda Grace said...

Freda Grace... [nee Payne]- sounds like the NZ police force are trained to counter crime with existential philosophy.
