Police have arrested a burglar who was caught in the act of frying a couple of frikandellen at a home he had broken into in Etten-Leur, Noord-Brabant.

When police responded to the call in the early hours of Thursday, they found the man with the meaty snacks ready to be fried.

“He must have been pretty hungry,” one of the officers said on Instagram. “We will not forget this case any time soon. It was pretty special,” he added.

The frikandellen were seized. “They are being kept in evidence,” police said.
